Electrical Insulating Tapes
Cheshire Ribbon manufacture woven tapes made from either glass or polyester yarns as well as from combinations of different yarn types, e.g. glass / polyester, glass/ aramid or glass / copper wire. We also manufacture tapes made from pre-shrunk or high-shrinkage polyester yarns.
Electrical woven tapes are used in a very wide range of taping applications, e.g. as a finishing layer, in electrical engineering and rotating machines as well as in the production of transformers.
Applications
- Tapes for insulating, consolidating and finishing tapes in all types of electrical equipment
- Tapes for use in power and communication cables as a fire barrier
- Tapes especially used for hand taping where glass tapes could pose a risk of skin irritation
- Tapes with open weave constructions for easy penetration of resin and oil
- Tapes for use as fire barriers in fire survival cables for both power supply and communication purposes
- Tapes capable of shrinkage for a better consolidation
- Tapes which can be utilised in conjunction with resin rich mica paper prepregs to achieve a good consolidation and bonding
