FRP Epoxy Rod

Advantages 

• Electrical Insulation Excellence: Epoxy rods are renowned for their exceptional electrical insulating properties. These rods act as barriers against electrical currents, effectively preventing leakage and ensuring the safety of both equipment and personnel.
• Mechanical Strength: Thanks to the pultrusion process, epoxy rods exhibit superior mechanical strength. This makes them suitable for a wide range of applications, even in harsh environments where traditional materials might fail.
• Corrosion Resistance: Epoxy rods are inherently resistant to corrosion, ensuring longevity and reliability even in corrosive atmospheres. This resistance contributes to reduced maintenance and replacement costs.
• Dimensional Stability: One of the standout features of epoxy rods is their dimensional stability. They resist warping, bowing, or deformation over time, maintaining their shape and integrity in various conditions.
• Thermal Performance: Epoxy rods can handle elevated temperatures without compromising their structural integrity or electrical properties. This makes them valuable in applications that involve heat or thermal cycling.

Applications

• Insulating Supports: Epoxy rods serve as sturdy insulating supports for overhead power lines, ensuring a safe distance between live conductors and the structures they traverse.
• Transformer Bushings: These rods are used in transformer bushings, providing a reliable barrier between the energized components and the grounded parts of the transformer assembly.
• Circuit Breakers: Epoxy rods find their place in circuit breakers, helping interrupt the flow of current and prevent electrical overloads.
• Switchgear Assemblies: Switchgear assemblies benefit from epoxy rods as well. Their insulation properties contribute to the safe and efficient operation of various electrical components within these systems.
• Lightning Arresters: Epoxy rods play a crucial role in lightning arrester applications, channelling and dissipating the energy from lightning strikes to the ground, and safeguarding sensitive equipment.
