Alumina Ceramic Suspension Insulator from Japan

High-purity alumina ceramic insulator used in strings for overhead power transmission lines at 132 kV and above, low-frequency AC systems. It provides superior puncture resistance and is capped with forged steel fittings. Falls under HTS 8546.20.00.60 for other ceramic high-voltage, low-frequency insulators.
