Kite / Phenolic paper laminate
For first class electrical insulation
Kite Brand TUFNOL is a first class electrical insulating material with good dielectric strength and high insulation resistance.
It has low moisture absorption and good mechanical strength, although its impact strength is lower than that of most other grades of TUFNOL.
Kite Brand sheet meets British Standard BS EN ISO 60893 Type PP CP 206. It is readily machined and can be hot punched in thicknesses up to 3.2mm. Kite Brand is the most widely used of all TUFNOL phenolic paper grades, wherever a good quality general purpose electrical insulation material is required.
It is used for a multitude of different applications at low, medium and high voltages, including such items as terminal boards, mounting panels, tag strips, coil formers, insulating sleeves and bushes. busbar supports, tool and instrument handles, coil supports, insulated enclosures, brush holders, insulating spacers and special purpose plugs and sockets.
Kite Brand is available in sheet and all hollow sections, such as tube. (For solid sections, such as round rod and square bar, Swan Brand TUFNOL is used.)
