Alcutrans supplies fibre glass covered copper and aluminium conductors designed for reliable performance in high-temperature and harsh operating environments. Fiberglass (also known as glass fiber) is made from extremely fine glass filaments and is widely used as an insulation material due to its excellent thermal, electrical, and mechanical properties.

Fiberglass covering provides effective electrical insulation while protecting the conductor from external stresses, making it a versatile insulation solution for demanding industrial applications.

Material & Insulation Properties

Fiberglass insulation offers outstanding resistance to heat, moisture, chemicals, and corrosion. It can withstand continuous operating temperatures up to 200°C or higher, depending on the application and construction.

The fibrous structure of fiberglass enhances mechanical strength and durability, protecting the underlying copper or aluminium conductor from physical damage, abrasion, and wear during operation.

Key Features & Benefits

• High Thermal Resistance: Suitable for high-temperature applications and continuous-duty operations.
• Excellent Electrical Insulation: Provides stable dielectric performance under extreme conditions.
• Lightweight Construction: Lighter than many conventional insulating materials, reducing overall system weight.
• Mechanical Strength & Durability: Fibrous structure improves resistance to mechanical stress and vibration.
• Moisture & Chemical Resistance: Resistant to oils, chemicals, corrosion, and environmental exposure.
• Non-Combustible Material: Enhances safety in electrical and industrial installations.
• Sound Absorption Properties: Helps reduce operational noise in certain applications.
