Many household appliances generate heat as their core function: ovens, heaters, hair dryers, irons, toasters. Inside them, insulation must separate live conductors from metal bodies at temperatures that would quickly degrade ordinary plastics — and it must do so safely for the life of the product, in a device used by untrained people every day.
YT MICA supplies mica insulation components to appliance manufacturers, where the material's combination of heat resistance, electrical insulation and non-combustibility makes it a natural fit.
Mica formers and carriers that support resistive wire while insulating it from the appliance body.
Thermal and electrical barriers able to withstand continuous cooking temperatures.
Hair dryers, irons, toasters and similar products where compact insulation must resist heat.
Insulating components for heating elements and control compartments.
Slot insulation and spacers for appliance motors running hot for extended periods.
Sheets and formed parts that isolate hot zones from temperature-sensitive components.
Because mica achieves its safety characteristics through its material nature rather than through a control system, it provides protection that continues to work even under fault conditions.
Tell us the operating temperature and insulation requirement and we will suggest a mica component.
