What is FR-4 PCB?
Material Overview
An FR-4 PCB is a printed circuit board made from a widely used material known as FR-4, which stands for flame-retardant grade 4. The standard is defined by the NEMA, and it refers to a composite material made from woven fiberglass cloth combined with epoxy resin.
Key Benefits
FR-4 offers excellent mechanical strength, good thermal stability, and reliable electrical insulation. Its cost-effectiveness and wide availability make it the industry standard for the majority of PCB applications across consumer, industrial, and commercial sectors.
