Why Wangling F4B?

40-60% Cost Savings

Domestic production and supply chain advantages deliver significant cost reduction versus imported Rogers and Taconic substrates.

Low Loss to 40GHz

Pure PTFE substrate with Df 0.001 at 10GHz. Proven in production across 5G antenna, satellite communication, and automotive radar builds.

Fast Availability

Domestic stock in standard thicknesses (0.5, 0.8, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0mm). No import lead time. Prototype-ready in days, not weeks.

Wangling F4B FAQs

What is Wangling F4B?

A Chinese PTFE laminate (Dk 2.65, Df 0.001 at 10GHz) manufactured by Wangling (旺灵). Widely used for RF, microwave, and 5G applications as a cost-effective alternative to Rogers.

F4B vs Rogers RO4350B

F4B has lower Dk (2.65 vs 3.48) which means wider traces at the same impedance. Rogers offers tighter Dk tolerance. For most 5G and microwave designs below 40GHz, F4B performs equivalently at 40-60% lower cost.

Can F4B be used in hybrid stackups?

Yes. F4B bonds well with standard FR-4 prepreg in hybrid configurations. PTFE surface treatment (sodium etch or plasma) ensures adhesion. We process hybrid F4B/FR-4 stackups routinely.
