Polyester Film

Polyester Film

Polyester film ideally suited for slot liners, closures and interphase insulation in electric motors and generators. Characterized by a high degree of safety and reliability.

Ideally developed for slot liners, closures and interphase insulations in Electric Motors, Fans, Generators and Transformers & for major Electical & Electronic components.

Polyester Film is also widely used in Cable Wrapping & Copper Insulation, Packaging, Lamination, Stationers, OHP Sheet, Window Packing, FRP Sheets, Stickers, Labels & over all it has got a multipurpose applications & uses.

Product Superiority

Insulation Resistance :

The electrical properties are excellent with a very high level of insulation resistance and very low level of moisture absorption. Ideally recommended for slot liners in F.H.P. as well as H.P. ratings in a variety of electrical rotating systems.

Toughness :

It does not crack or spilt when creased sharply. It is easily formed into "Cuffed" slot liners and closures by semi-automatic machines and runs efficiently in fully automatic forming and inserting machines

Ageing :

Accelerated ageing tests at very high temperatures indicated that the life is longer than general grades of polyester film.

Chemical Compatibility :

It is compatible with most impregnating varnishes, particularly those based on polyester resins of the terephthalote or isophthalate types.

Brittleness ;

It can be used at a temperature of low as -70o C without becoming brittle
