Silicon Laminates G7

Insulac G-7 materials are glass based laminates with a silicone resin binder. Glass silicone insulating materials offer excellent thermal resistance (up to 250°C) and arc resistance. These grades find application as electric furnace insulation, circuit breaker parts, switchboard panels, and arc barriers and also available in tubing. In fabrication, care must be taken due to the low internal bond strengths inherent in silicone resins.

Insulac It exhibits excellent electrical properties, excellent heat resistance, outstanding arc resistance, and Self­extinguishing properties. The main applications are Class H Transformers, Arc Plates, Terminal Boards, Microwave radar insulation, Spacers, wedges and all H class applications
