Linen Micarta
Norplex-Micarta manufactures several forms of Micarta including linen Micarta. It is made from the process of blending linen substrates with phenolic resins to form a durable yet beautiful product. Compared to canvas, linen produces a finer finish compared to the gradient finish produced by canvas. Regardless of which Micarta material you prefer, all will yield very similar results.
The process of manufacturing Micarta involves pressing together ply’s of phenolic treated linen under high heat and pressure. From this point, the pressed sheet can be fabricated into various parts or shapes.
Python is a combination of Black, Natural, Brown & Red 1x1x1x1 linen layers repeating to make this outstanding pattern.
