Legislation and Compliance
RoHS Certificate of Compliance
EU Directives 2011/65/EU and 2015/863 restrict the use of the 10 substances below in the manufacture of specified types of electrical equipment.
Whilst this restriction does not legally apply to components, it is recognised that component “compliance” is relevant to many customers.
RS definition of RoHS Compliance:
- The product does not contain any of the restricted substances in concentrations and applications banned by the Directive,
- and for components, the product is capable of being worked on at the higher temperatures required by lead–free soldering
The restricted substances and maximum allowed concentrations in the homogenous material are, by weight:
| Substance | Concentration |
| Lead | 0.1% |
| Mercury | 0.1% |
| PBB (Polybrominated Biphenyls) | 0.1% |
| PBDE ( Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers) | 0.1% |
| Hexavalent Chromium | 0.1% |
| Cadmium | 0.01% |
| DEHP (Bis (2-Ethylhexl) phthalate) | 0.1% |
| BBP (Benzyl butyl phthalate) | 0.1% |
| DBP (Dibutyl phthalate) | 0.1% |
| DIBP (Diisobutyl phthalate) | 0.1% |
The supplier of the item listed below has informed RS Components that the product is "RoHS Compliant".
RS Components has taken all reasonable steps to confirm this statement. Information relates only to products sold on or after the date of this certificate.

Product Details
RS Pro Black Glass Fibre Reinforced Nylon Solid Plastic Sheets - GRP Sheet : Glass Renforced Plastic
From RS Pro a range of high-quality glass fibre reinforced black nylon sheets available in a range of sizes and thicknesses.
What are Solid Plastic Sheets?
Solid plastic sheets are sheets of strong durable plastic or plastic like materials which are cut to size and sold in a wide range of sizes and thickness. These hard plastic sheets, once purchased, can then be cut or machined into components for the fabrication of products for use in a wide range of industries. Different plastics have different properties which lend them for use in specific applications
What is Glass Fibre Reinforced Nylon?
This plastic is made from Nylon 66 (PA 66) which is reinforced with 30% glass fibre. This type of plastic is also known as Nylon 66 GF30. Compared to normal unreinforced PA 66, this plastic is stronger, more rigid with high dimensional stability creep strength. The dimensional stability is the degree to which a material maintains its original dimensions when subjected to changes in temperature and humidity. Creep is the term used for the tendency of a solid material to move slowly or deform permanently under the influence of mechanical stresses. The glass fibre inside this Nylon 66 GF30 can be abrasive on mating surfaces so this material is not best suited for use in sliding applications. The black colour of this glass filled nylon means it has improved UV protection and weather resistance and suitable for outdoor use. This hard plastic sheet is easily machined and bonded
