Military/Aerospace
applicationsrequire materials with excellent electrical performance and
above all, a history of proven performance in high reliability programs.
Rogers RT/duroid and TMM families have been used in military &
aerospace programs for over 60 years combined, they allow the design
engineer to meet tight performance specifications while at the same time
obtain worry-free designs over the life of the program.
