Celoron

Phenolic canvas laminate, mechanical-electrical grade

Celoron is a high-pressure phenolic laminate of cotton fabric impregnated with phenolic resin and hot-pressed, in a mechanical-electrical grade. It offers high impact resistance and good dielectric properties, is waterproof, quiet and allows fine machining, with resistance to chemicals and to high and low temperatures. It is ideal for gears and pinions, electrical insulation and oil-immersed transformers, with a long service life in industrial use.
