Description
Low Density Plastic Terminals
Close type terminals, rigid type terminal blocks, and Euro Series terminal blocks of Suraj Electronics are specifically made to be touch proof. The highest-grade phenol formaldehyde resin (Bakelite), low-density plastic (LDP), and polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), an insulating base material, are used in the transmission of electrical control signals. PBT is a material that is unbreakable, non-hygroscopic, highly insulating resistant, and able to endure high impulse voltages. Superior grade copper alloys with the ideal ratio of copper to zinc are used to make the electrical conductors, resulting in low temperature rise and little transmission loss of electric current within predetermined bounds.
High tensile mild steel is used to make the screws, however brass and stainless steel 304 grade are other options. The mild steel screws underwent zinc passivation, utilizing a particular grade of zinc that is resistant to corrosion even under extreme conditions for extended periods of time. Bright nickel is applied on brass screws.

Common uses and features of Low-density Plastic Terminals
1. Electrical Insulation: LDPE terminals provide good electrical insulation, which is crucial for preventing short circuits or electrical shocks.
2. Durability and Flexibility: Low-density plastic is more flexible than high-density plastics, allowing these terminals to withstand bending and movement without breaking.
3. Moisture Resistance: LDPE is water-resistant, making it suitable for terminals that are exposed to moisture or humid environments.
4. Lightweight: Low-density plastics are lightweight, which can help reduce the overall weight of electronic or electrical devices.
5. Cost-Effective: LDPE is relatively inexpensive to produce, which can help lower the overall cost of the electrical component.
LDPTs would be useful in low-power applications, consumer electronics, automotive wiring, and other contexts where the plastic’s properties align with the product’s needs.
