• Normally insulators
• Hard and brittle
• defined as inorganic non metallic solid
• Ex. Clay products (bricks,pots)
Non – metallic materials
(natural materials)
Rubber :This is used for hydraulic and compressed air hoses
and oil seals. Naturally occurring latex is too soft for most
engineering uses but it is used widely for vehicle tyres when it
is compounded with carbon black.
