Cylinders, Supports & Lead Insulation

Transformer Insulation Cylinders

Also known as: Pressboard Cylinders

Transformer insulation cylinders provide electrical separation, mechanical support and structural reinforcement around winding assemblies. Diameter, wall thickness, height, material, joints and dimensional tolerances are confirmed according to the transformer design.

Dimensions, materials, tolerances and testing requirements are confirmed according to customer drawings and order specifications.

Key functions and options

  • Continuous cylindrical insulation
  • Supports winding structure
  • Customized diameter and height
  • Open or joined construction options

Typical applications

  • Transformer winding insulation
  • Structural reinforcement
  • Concentric insulation barriers
Quotation preparation

Information to include with your RFQ

  • Inner and outer diameter
  • Height and wall thickness
  • Joint type and openings
