Printed Circuit Design & Fab - April 2008 - (Page 47) “Your Technology Partner” For more detail visit www.FineCircuits.com Fine Circuits Inc. PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD STIFFENER Large PCB’s require a mechanical stiffener to eliminate warp and bow, also to prevent copper trace damage due to bending, vibration and rough handling. A must for guidance of a PCB into its connector, and for reliable operation afterwards. • Unique aluminum bar shape accepts a screw or rivet anywhere along its length. • Same bar will install on PCB’s with different hole locations. • Eliminates close tolerance requirement between mounting holes. • Can be installed on spacers to clear components, copper traces or wire adds. • Can also function as a Heat Sink or Power/Ground bus. • Visit our web site for dimensions and specifications. 2 layer starting at $9 ea 4 layer starting at $19 ea 2 layer Flex starting at $49 ea QUICK TURN SPECIAL 2 layer 1 day 5 pc $179/lot .062 FR-4 1oz Mask & Silk EXCITING OFFER CAPABILITIES & MATERIAL 1-24 layers. 1-2 layer ship same day.
