Our mission is to provide top-notch products that meet the evolving needs of the industry. Lets delve into what makes polymer insulators stand out and why investing in them is a smart move for any electrical project.
polymer insulator is a modern type of electrical insulator used in power systems to mechanically support and electrically isolate conductors. It is primarily used in transmission and distribution lines, especially in high-voltage environments.

    

Polymer Insulator

Components
Core: Usually made of fiberglass-reinforced epoxy resin, providing mechanical strength. Housing and Sheds: Made of silicone rubber, EPDM, or ethylene propylene rubber, which provide weather resistance and electrical insulation. End Fittings: Metal parts that connect the insulator to the power system structures and conductors
Structure
Core Rod :
Material : Fiberglass-reinforced epoxy resin
Function : Provides mechanical strength
Housing and Weather Sheds :
Material : Silicone rubber, EPDM, or other polymers
Function : Provides electrical insulation and environmental protection
End Fittings :
Material : Galvanized steel or aluminum
Function : Connects the insulator to line hardware

Applications

• Transmission Lines: Often used in high-voltage and extra-high-voltage power lines.
  Substations
  Railway Electrification Systems

Advantages

• Lightweight : Easier and cheaper to transport and install.
  High Hydrophobicity : Silicone rubber maintains a water-repellent surface, reducing leakage current.
  Resistant to Vandalism : Less likely to shatter compared to ceramic/glass.
  Good Performance in Polluted Environments: Better tracking and erosion resistance.
