Electrogard SiCoat
ELECTROGARD® SiCOAT is a premium RTV silicone–based high voltage insulation coating developed to enhance the safety and reliability of electrical insulation systems. It forms a seamless, strongly bonded protective layer on glass, porcelain, and polymer insulators, delivering long-lasting ultra-hydrophobicity, excellent dielectric strength, and superior UV resistance. By effectively suppressing leakage currents and minimizing dust- and pollution-related flashover risks, ELECTROGARD® SiCOAT helps extend the service life of high-voltage assets while ensuring safer and more reliable plant operations.
