Single-Sided Bakelite PCB Board (1ft x 1ft) Overview
The Single-Sided Bakelite PCB Board (1ft x 1ft) is a robust, cost-effective platform for prototyping and small-scale circuit production. Constructed from phenolic Bakelite with a single copper layer, this board is engineered for through-hole component assembly and general electronics work where durability and insulation matter.
Key Features
- Single-sided copper layer: Easy and reliable soldering for through-hole components and hand assembly.
- Large 1ft x 1ft size (305 x 305 mm): Plenty of workspace for complex circuits or testing multiple layouts at once.
- High-quality Bakelite (phenolic resin): Excellent electrical insulation, rigidity, and wear resistance.
- 1oz copper thickness: Standard copper weight suitable for most prototyping and light current traces.
- Heat and chemical resistant: Withstands moderate soldering temperatures and exposure to common workshop chemicals.
- Easy to modify: Cuts, drills, and shapes cleanly for custom sizes and mounting needs.

Why Choose This Bakelite PCB for Prototyping
For hobbyists, students, and engineers, this single-sided Bakelite PCB balances cost, durability, and ease of use. Its large format makes board layout iterations faster while the phenolic core provides reliable electrical isolation for experimental circuits.
Benefits
- Cost-effective compared to fiberglass alternatives for basic projects.
- Rigid and stable platform for component mounting and wiring.
- Simple to modify for custom cutouts, mounting holes, and fixture integration.
- Suitable for educational kits, prototypes, small production runs, and DIY electronics.
Applications
- Prototyping and testing of custom circuits
- Electronics education and student projects
- Hobbyist and DIY electronics builds
- Small-scale production and short-run circuit boards
- Industrial use where durable, low-cost boards are required
Working Tips and Fabrication Advice
- When cutting or drilling, use sharp bits and moderate speeds to avoid chipping the phenolic material.
- Clean the copper before soldering to ensure strong joints and reduce oxidation.
- For heavier currents, plan trace widths accordingly or add solder to increase trace thickness where needed.
- Edge smoothing and deburring improve mechanical mounting and reduce stress on component leads.
