Durostone Glastic FHT (Flexible High Temperature) Laminate provides numerous high performance features and benefits, such as high flexibility and excellent dielectric strength at elevated temperatures.

• Highly Flexible
• Excellent Dielectric Strength
• High Heat Resistance
• Ideal For Dry-Type Transformers
• Easily Fabricated
• Asbestos-Free

It also exhibits the highest UL temperature index in the industry for a flexible glass-reinforced polyester in 1⁄32 inch and 1⁄16 inch thicknesses:

• 1⁄32″ – 190° C Electrical • 1⁄16″ – 200° C Electrical
• 1⁄32″ – 190° C Mechanical • 1⁄16″ – 200° C Mechanical

With its high resistance to heat, FHT Laminate offers a cost-effective alternative to aramid paper in
220°C insulation for dry-type transformers.
