Its products are designed to withstand severe conditions, ensuring the integrity of motors, transformers, generators and cable networks.
Product Portfolio for Electrical Insulation
Fibertex offers a diverse line of products, each developed with specific fibers to meet the requirements of dielectric strength, mechanical strength and thermal stability.
1. Technical Insulation Tapes
Tapes are essential for the insulation of coils and motors. Fibertex offers tapes in various materials and thicknesses:
•Fiberglass Tape: Widely used in transformers and generators due to its excellent structural stability and resistance to high temperatures. It can receive treatments with non-conductive resins, adhesives or finishes pre-preg.
•Polyester and Cotton Tape: Indicated for the identification of wires and electrical cables, providing a high-performance finish and protection against external agents.
•Hybrid Tapes: They combine the properties of glass, polyester and cotton for applications that require versatility and superior mechanical strength.
2. Fiberglass Lacing Tapes
Lacing tapes are widely used to tie stator bars and coils. They offer additional mechanical protection and are essential to prevent movement that could compromise electrical insulation. Fibertex produces versions treated with special resins that help identify cables and ensure the material is non-conductive.
3. Sleevings (Insulating Tubes)
Fibertex sleevings are braided without a core, allowing cables and hoses to pass through and be protected.
•Fiberglass Sleeving: Available in gauges from 3 mm to 100 mm, it protects against hot metal splashes and abrasion.
•Aramid Sleeving: It stands out for its extremely high resistance to cutting and abrasion, making it ideal for aggressive industrial environments.
•Ceramic Fiber Sleeving: Used when extreme thermal insulation combined with electrical protection is required, with reinforcement options in inconel.
4. Yarns and Cords
These materials are used in pultrusion and filament winding (filament winding) with epoxy resin, resulting in tubes and parts with high dielectric strength.
•Aramid Yarns: Essential for reinforcing fiber optic and telephone cables, preventing stretching and ensuring connection durability over long spans.
