Availability:
Quantity:
JUTAIPPS® GF40 is a 40% glass-fiber-reinforced PPS rod developed for electrical connectors, IC sockets, insulating supports and structural components requiring high stiffness, low thermal expansion and dimensional stability at elevated temperatures.

Standard diameters range from Ø8 to Ø100 mm, with lengths of 1,000 mm, 2,000 mm and 3,000 mm.

Cut-to-length supply and precision CNC machining are available according to customer drawings and application requirements.

JUTAIPPS® GF40 Rod for Electrical Connectors and IC Sockets

Glass-Fiber-Reinforced PPS Rod for Precision Structural Parts

JUTAIPPS® GF40 is a 40% glass-fiber-reinforced polyphenylene sulfide rod designed for components requiring higher stiffness, lower thermal expansion and better resistance to deformation than unfilled PPS.

The material is particularly suitable for electrical connectors, IC sockets, sensor supports, coil components, insulating structures and high-temperature mechanical parts.

Compared with natural PPS, the glass-fiber reinforcement substantially increases tensile modulus and flexural modulus while reducing dimensional movement during mechanical loading and thermal cycling.

Standard rods are available in diameters from Ø8 to Ø100 mm and lengths of 1,000 mm, 2,000 mm and 3,000 mm.

Why PPS GF40 Is Used for Connectors and IC Sockets

High Stiffness

JUTAIPPS® GF40 provides a tensile modulus of at least 5.0 GPa and a flexural modulus of at least 7.0 GPa.

The higher stiffness helps thin or precision components maintain their geometry during assembly and operation.

Low Thermal Expansion

The coefficient of linear thermal expansion is ≤45 × 10⁻⁶/K under the applicable test conditions.

Lower thermal expansion helps connector bodies, test sockets and insulating structures maintain dimensional alignment during repeated temperature changes.

High Heat-Deflection Temperature

JUTAIPPS® GF40 provides a heat-deflection temperature of at least 230°C at 1.80 MPa under the referenced test conditions.

This makes the material suitable for structural components exposed to elevated temperatures and mechanical load.

Electrical Insulation

The material provides high volume resistivity and good dielectric strength.

Typical electrical applications include:

• Connector bodies
• IC socket components
• Insulating supports
• Coil frames
• Terminal components
• Sensor supports
• Electrical spacers
• Switch components

Inherent Flame Resistance

JUTAIPPS® GF40 can achieve UL94 V-0 performance at the specified test thickness.

The final component rating depends on product thickness, resin formulation and applicable testing requirements.

Chemical Resistance

PPS provides excellent resistance to many industrial chemicals, oils, fuels, coolants and cleaning media.

Chemical compatibility must be confirmed under actual operating conditions.

PPS GF40 or Natural PPS?

Choose JUTAIPPS® GF40 When You Need:

• Higher stiffness
• Higher flexural modulus
• Lower thermal expansion
• Better resistance to creep
• Better structural stability
• Improved dimensional stability during thermal cycling
• Higher load-bearing capability

Choose JUTAIPPS® NA When You Need:

• Better toughness
• Easier machining
• Smoother machined surfaces
• Lower cutting-tool wear
• Better suitability for complex machined details
• Unfilled electrically insulating material

For unfilled material, see the JUTAIPPS® NA Natural PPS Rod.

For reinforced flat stock, see the JUTAIPPS® GF40 Sheet.

Typical Applications

Electrical Connectors

PPS GF40 rod can be machined into:

• Connector bodies
• Connector inserts
• Terminal supports
• Insulating sleeves
• High-temperature spacers
• Sensor connector components
• Electrical alignment components

IC Sockets and Test Equipment

Typical components include:

• IC socket structures
• Test-socket supports
• Insulating positioning parts
• Semiconductor test-equipment components
• Precision alignment sleeves
• Probe-card auxiliary components
• High-temperature test fixtures

Suitability should be confirmed according to electrical, dimensional, cleanliness and outgassing requirements.

Coil and Electrical Components

JUTAIPPS® GF40 can be used for:

• Coil frames
• Bobbins
• Transformer supports
• Motor insulating components
• Relay structures
• Switch components
• High-voltage supports

High-Temperature Mechanical Parts

Typical machined parts include:

• Structural bushings
• Spacers
• Supports
• Guide components
• Sensor housings
• Equipment fixtures
• Precision mounting parts
• Thermally stable structural components

Machining Considerations

Glass-fiber-reinforced PPS is more abrasive than natural PPS.

Recommended machining practices include:

• Use sharp carbide or diamond-coated tools
• Maintain rigid workpiece support
• Avoid excessive clamping pressure
• Control cutting heat
• Use suitable dust extraction
• Allow sufficient machining tolerance
• Inspect cutting tools regularly
• Consider staged machining for tight tolerances

PPS GF40 may produce a less uniform surface than natural PPS because machining exposes glass fibers.

The material should not be selected automatically for sliding against soft mating surfaces because the glass fibers may increase counter-surface wear.

Frequently Asked Questions

What diameters of PPS GF40 rod are available?

Standard diameters range from Ø8 to Ø100 mm, with standard lengths of 1,000 mm, 2,000 mm and 3,000 mm.

Why is PPS GF40 suitable for electrical connectors?

It combines high stiffness, low thermal expansion, heat resistance, electrical insulation and inherent flame resistance.

Is PPS GF40 electrically conductive?

Standard glass-fiber-reinforced PPS is generally electrically insulating. It should not be confused with carbon-fiber-reinforced or conductive PPS grades.

Is PPS GF40 easy to machine?

It can be precision-machined, but the glass fibers increase cutting-tool wear. Carbide or diamond-coated tools are recommended.

Can PPS GF40 be used for bearings?

It may be suitable for selected structural bushings, but it should not automatically be selected for high-speed sliding parts because exposed glass fibers can increase mating-surface wear.

Can JUTAI machine finished connector components?

Yes. JUTAI provides CNC turning, milling, drilling, grinding and dimensional inspection according to customer drawings.
