BMC 5436 molding compound is a low cost, mineral filled, glass-fiber-reinforced polyester compound suitable for compression, transfer and stuffer injection molding. It is characterized by good moldability, medium impact strength and excellent overall electrical properties. Typical applications include circuit breakers, transformer bobbins and motor end bells. BMC 5436 molding compound is produced in extruded form in a range on industrial colors. Because of the soft consistency of this product, it is only available in logs from 3 inches to 12 inches in length and from 1" to 2 ½" in diameter. Within this range, smaller diameters are supplied as multiple extrusions.
