Core Products & Technologies
Electrical Laminated Wood Board
A widely used insulating and supporting material in transformers and instrument transformers. It offers moderate density, high mechanical strength, excellent compatibility with transformer oil, ease of machining and vacuum drying.
- Dielectric constant close to transformer oil
- Long-term use at 105°C in transformer oil
- Reduces transformer weight and costs
- Replaces steel plates, pressboard, epoxy boards
Scarf-Jointed Electrical Laminated Wood Board
To overcome the density variations, internal stress, and voids found in conventional overlapping-joint boards, Metalink employs advanced veneer grinding and lengthening technology.
- 7-degree scarf angle joint for integrated sheets
- Superior mechanical strength
- Enhanced, uniform electrical properties
- Suitable for high-voltage applications
X-Pattern Layup Pressure Ring
Metalink's innovative "X" pattern layup technology aligns wood fibers along the radius direction, formed in a single pressing operation for consistent radial bending strength.
- Exceptionally high and consistent radial strength
- Bending strength >120 MPa for density ≥1.1 g/cm³
- Resistance against electromagnetic forces
- Maximum diameter up to 2400mm

Electrical Laminated Wood for Transformer Insulation
Electrical laminated wood is an essential insulating material used in power transformers, distribution transformers, and instrument transformers. As a specialized form of engineered wood, it provides excellent electrical insulation properties combined with high mechanical strength.
Our electrical laminated wood products are specifically engineered for high voltage applications from 10kV to 220kV. The material's dielectric constant closely matches that of transformer oil, ensuring optimal electric field distribution and insulation coordination in oil-immersed transformers.
Manufactured from carefully selected birch veneers and premium insulating resins, Metalink's electrical laminated wood offers superior performance compared to traditional materials like steel plates, epoxy boards, or standard pressboard. The advanced scarf-jointing technology eliminates internal defects, while the X-pattern layup for pressure rings ensures uniform radial strength distribution.
Applications include: transformer lead supports, pressure rings, step blocks, yoke insulation, clamping plates, and various other insulation components in electrical power equipment. The material is fully compatible with vacuum drying processes and maintains dimensional stability throughout the transformer manufacturing process.
