Standard Supply
Thickness: 0.10-1.90mm+/-0.05mm
Size: 1000*600/1200/2400mm
Customized strips or parts according to customer’s drawing or requirements.

Processing
Micanite Rigid M&P is a rigid mica sheet which can easily punched. Tools for punching precise parts should be provided with spring loaded hold down plates.
Micanite Rigid MSS & PSS is a rigid mica sheet (Muscovite alternatively Phlogopite) with higher density, a higher flexural strength and a smoother surface  pressed by steel plate instead of glass fabric). The SS type is most suitable for punching highly detailed pieces or when imprinting is required.
