Application Examples

InsuLam® Tangential Pressure Rings

InsuLam® LH77, tangential grade, is the engineer’s best tool to balance the necessary mechanical strength demanded by the application with the cost benefit of a smaller core window. The improved stiffness and flexural strength are beneficial in preventing coil movement during short circuit. 

InsulWynd® Interrupter Shells, Tubes, and Chambers

Interrupter tubes in circuit breakers are a common necessity for power and electrical equipment. CK Composites can manufacture custom interrupter tubes for almost any application and quantity.

InsulWynd® E-Glass, S-Glass Waste Water Tubes

CK Composites manufactures custom filament wound corrosion and chemical resistant tubes, piping, and joints.

InsulVolt® Specialized Suspension Insulators

Manufactured specialized insulators for electrified railways.

InsulVolt® Insulators

CK Composites has manufactured tens of thousands of molded bushings, molded spouts, and molded insulators using APG which is best suited for parts with a high production volume. Liquid Injection Molding (LIM) allows the molding of complicated shapes, ranging up to fifty pounds in weight, and void free. These parts are ideal for power apparatuses and transformers for the electrical industry.

InsulVolt® 6 Pt. Terminal Blocks

We manufacture a wide range of custom cast and molded tap changer panels for the electrical industry. Metal conductors and other metal inserts can be included as an integral part of the casting.
