Default Strong insulating (electrical) sheet material.

I need to find a substitute for aluminium plate which doesn't conduct

something a bit easier to work, and the fixing holes would be rather close
to the edge for ply.

Something like a few layers of the glass fibre used for decent PCBs would
be good - or sheet of that about 5mm thick.

Size needed about 3x2" so small. Load less than a kilo, but supported at
one end only, so a fair twisting moment on it.

Anything I could pop along to a shed and buy?

white UPVC for soffits and the like might do? Often 6mm thick I think.
