Molded Circuit Breakers


Molded Circuit Breakers

Woodland Plastics has experience molding a variety of circuit breaker components including covers, bases, cases, and handles in both thermoset BMC and phenolic molding materials. Circuit breaker components are molded in multi-cavitation molds and then deflashed and inspected prior to shipment to customer assembly plants. Depending on specific requirements, some circuit breaker components also include a post-baking operation after molding for additional cure.

Utilizing thermoset materials into molded circuit breakers enhances safety and provides high protection against electrical current, voltage, and electrical arc/track in addition to offering heat and corrosion resistant properties.
