Transformer Board STB 3.1
Transformer Board STB 3.1 is a pre-compressed, high-density pressboard made from 100% high purity, unbleached sulphate kraft wood pulp. It is very flat, hard and rigid in character, having good physical, mechanical and electrical properties, which make it ideal for manufacture of various machined components such as radial and axial spacres, runners, blocks, strips, rings, etc. used in production of power transformers upto 765 kV class.
Transformer Board STB 3.1 is in full conformity with IEC 60641-3-1:1992, Type B.3.1.
