Richlite "Columbia" Paper Phenolic Scales
Layers of Chocolate Glacier and Maple Valley come together to create one beautiful composite that Richlite calls "Columbia". The contrasting colors create an incredible pattern that really comes to life when contoured!
Richlite is a paper composite very similar to traditional paper Micarta. Made from 100% post consumer recycled paper and cardboard combined with phenolic resin, Richlite is an extremely durable material with excellent impact, flex, and scratch resistance. Despite its density, it is surprisingly easy to machine and finish.
One of our favorite things about Richlite is how beautifully it ages. Thanks to its phenolic resin, the material continues to develop a natural patina over time, gaining character and depth as it ages. In our opinion, Richlite only gets better looking with time!
We've worked with and tested numerous paper phenolic composites over the years, and Richlite is the modern material we've found to behave most similarly to vintage paper Micarta of old.
Scales measure 5" x 1.5" x .31" and are sold in sets of two.
