BMC 600 molding compound is a mineral filled, glass-fiber-reinforced polyester compound suitable for compression, transfer and stuffer injection molding. It is a general purpose material with medium impact strength and good overall electrical properties. Typical applications include slip rings, commutators and brush holders. BMC 600 molding compound is produced in extruded form in a range of industrial colors. It is available in logs up to 12 inches in length or as precut slugs, of specific weight, in diameters from 1" to 2 ½". Within this range, smaller diameters are supplied as multiple extrusions and weight tolerances are plus or minus 5% up to a maximum of plus or minus 15 grams.
