This glass-epoxy laminate is specified for its extremely high strength and high dimensional stability over temperature. G-10 is used for terminal boards, high humidity applications, electrical and electronic test equipment and electric rotor insulation. G-10 is difficult to cut or machine and may require special equipment. G-10 is slightly stronger while G-11 is a better insulator and can withstand higher temperatures. FR-4 is a fire-retardant G-10 glass-epoxy laminate that is used primarily in the printed circuit board industry. G-10 and similar fiberglass reinforced thermosets are sometimes known as garolite.
