Easy-to-Machine Hard Fiber Rods

- Color: Gray
- Max. Temperature: 235° F
- Tensile Strength: 9,000-21,000 psi (Good)
- Impact Strength: 1.8-2.5 ft.-lbs./in. (Good)
- Hardness: Rockwell R80 (Hard)
- For Use Outdoors: No
- Specifications Met: MIL-F-10336, MIL-F-1148, UL 94 HB
Frequently used to make gears and bushings, these hard fiber rods can be readily machined and punched into custom parts. They are constructed from lightweight cotton fabric that's been chemically treated to make them hard and dense. Hard fiber is also known as vulcanized fiber.
