Xamax Industries is a leading manufacturer of superior quality electrical insulation paper, tissue, film, tape, and fabric materials that can be used as a wire separator, binder, and filler for electrical wires and cables. Our range of insulation materials can guarantee safety in rigorous electrical applications, preventing hazards and electrical risks.

Importance of Electrical Separators and Insulation Materials

Electrical cable insulation and separation are necessary in demanding applications where electrical components are exposed in harsh environments and settings. Insulation materials can resist electrical leakage, which prevents the wires from coming into contact with other conductors.

A wire separator and insulator can also maintain the wire’s integrity by preventing heat and water from reaching the wires. As long as the proper electrical cable insulation and wire separator is administered, these components are safeguarded against short circuits and electrical shocks.

That said, the effectiveness of the wire highly depends on the insulation material. Fortunately, Xamax Industries produces high-performance materials for countless electrical insulation and component applications.

Surface Enhancements For Separators And Connectors

When used as a separator, it is often placed between a conductor and its dielectric, between a cable jacket and the components it covers or between various components of multiple conductor cable.

We provide materials for a wide range of conductors, including those of different sizes, and with the ability to handle different temperatures and voltages. Our material also works for cables that are jacketed with plastics, rubbers or fluoropolymers.

Benefits include: Improved stripping qualities and/or flexibility, additional mechanical or electrical component protection, reduction of scrap and jacket material costs.

Sizes: Xamax insulation material is available in a variety of widths from 5mm+, in pancake roll or in traverse wound packages, applied longitudinally and/or spirally

Benefits of Our Insulation Materials

We specialize in top-of-the-line separators and insulation materials that improves the performance of your electrical systems. Our materials have unique features that make them suitable for diverse electrical projects.

Features of our materials include:

  • Thermal insulation: Our materials can resist high temperatures, which is common in high-power applications.
  • Acts as a protective barrier: Insulation materials are a barrier between the conductor and its surroundings, minimizing the risk of electrical accidents and fatalities.
  • Reduces electrical noise: Interference with other electronic devices is avoided, thanks to our materials’ ability to reduce the emissions caused by electromagnetic waves.
  • Protection against environmental factors: Applications where moisture, UV radiation, mechanical stress, and chemicals can facilitate the breakdown of your electrical wires and cables. Insulation prevents these from happening, ensuring the longevity of your electrical systems.
  • Complies with electrical codes and standards: Proper insulation promotes the electrical safety of buildings and structures, reducing the risk of legal and regulatory consequences.

Our expansive range of materials ensures you find the right option for your project. These are rich in desirable properties, such as our flame retardant Kraft paper, which is ideally used as transformer insulation to avoid accidental over-voltages

The Outstanding Properties of Kraft Paper

At Xamax Industries, we focus on electrical grade and flame retardant Kraft paper as insulation and separator for most electrical wires and cables. These are paramount in the electrical industry, so their uses are substantial and varied.

Our Kraft paper has desirable properties, including:

  • Outstanding dielectric properties: Our products have excellent dielectric properties that suit high-voltage applications.
  • High tensile strength: Kraft paper‘s exceptional strength and resilience make it ideal for use in high-stress environments.
  • Lightweight: Kraft paper is light, which is imperative in some applications where weight and space are limited.
  • Flexibility: You can employ Kraft paper in various electrical components, not just wires and cables.
