Why Fibox Chooses Polycarbonate for Enclosures

Fibox enclosures are exclusively made from high-quality polycarbonate, making them a resilient choice for various applications. Polycarbonate offers several key advantages:

  • Superior Durability:

    • High Impact Resistance: Polycarbonate boasts exceptional tensile strength, allowing it to flex upon impact and return to its original shape, ideal for environments prone to accidental bumps or collisions.
    • Easy Modification: Polycarbonate can be readily customized with holes, cut-outs, and recesses without compromising its structural integrity.
  • Other Key Benefits:

    • Natural Chemical Resistance: Withstands exposure to various chemicals, making it suitable for diverse environments.
    • Lightweight: Well-suited for large enclosures due to its minimal weight.
    • Excellent UV and Weather Resistance: Ideal for outdoor applications.
    • Natural Corrosion Resistance: Inherently corrosion-resistant and will not rust.

Cost Consideration:

While cost is a factor, prioritizing the material properties that best suit your application's requirements is crucial.

  • ABS plastic: Offers the lowest cost but comes with limitations in weight, impact resistance, and UL ratings.
  • Polycarbonate: Provides a balance between affordability and features like IP and NEMA ratings, making it a valuable choice for many applications.
