Material Data Sheet
Exhaustive breakdown of the alloys, polymers, and structural materials utilized in the SCB-V2.
| Component | Material | Properties & Justification |
|---|---|---|
| Main Grid Plane | High-Density Fiberboard (HDF) | Selected for high tensile strength, dimensional stability, and lack of electrical conductivity. Coated in a matte black thermoplastic film to resist moisture and abrasion. |
| PDU Spine | 6061-T6 Aluminum (Extruded) | Structural rigidity prevents board warp under heavy asymmetric loads. High thermal conductivity dissipates heat from internal power electronics. Anodized black finish. |
| Mounting Standoffs | 12-Gauge Cold-Rolled Steel | Provides massive shear strength for securing the 45lb assembly to the desk frame. Powder-coated for corrosion resistance. |
| Vibration Isolators | Neoprene Rubber (60A Durometer) | Placed between the steel standoffs and the desk to absorb motor vibration from standing desks and prevent scratching. |
