Product Features & Engineering Performance

  • Higher glass fiber content delivers much higher tensile, flexural and impact strength than standard fan-grade SMC, outstanding load and vibration resistance, ideal for large-diameter impellers and oversized fan housings.
  • Molding shrinkage ≤0.12% ensures excellent dimensional stability, resisting creep deformation under long-term high-speed operation and maintaining dynamic balance accuracy.
  • Low water absorption, resistant to moisture, salt spray, weak acid and alkali corrosion, rust-free for humid and corrosive environments.
  • Heat deflection temperature ≥200℃, reliable heat resistance to withstand temperature rise during continuous fan operation.
  • Lightweight, significantly lighter than steel, reducing overall fan load and improving vibration & noise reduction.
  • Integral compression molding produces complex curved surfaces with smooth finish and low wind resistance. Without flame retardant system, it focuses on strength and corrosion resistance with cost advantages for general industrial ventilation projects.
