Electrical Busbars and Switchgear Industry

PPC specializes in Industrial Coating Applications for the Electrical Busbars and switchgears  Industry with special focus on Insulation , corrosion protection and electrical conductance.

Performance Polymers and Coatings provides prototype, batch, and long-run industrial coating services for major Electrical bus bars and switch gear  manufacturers across the country.
Busbars work as wonderful conductors and play an important role in the distribution of electricity. At PPC, we will add a layer of insulative coating onto the busbars. As a coating company,  with decades of experience behind our name, we know the technical ins and outs of coating important electrical devices. Without the proper coating on copper busbars, these integral pieces to the electric grid would not last as long as they should.

Coatings  applied by PPC , to the other electrical grid and switch gear components where insulation dielectric property of our functional coatings prevent erosion and accumulation of spark debris on active contactors. PTFE will deliver a number of benefits once applied to your electrical equipment including, high dielectric strength , non-conductive coating, high temperature capability, low dissipation factor, very high surface resistivity, good UV resistance. By using specialist techniques our polymers can be made static dissipative (anti-static), non-conductive or even conductive for specific applications.

The Most Popular Coatings are Products Containing PTFE. Coatings We Apply Include:

  • Teflon® from Chemours/ DuPont Performance Coatings
  • Xylan®, produced by PPG Whitford Worldwide
  • Polyamide particularly Rilsan® Nylon 11 from Arkema
  • Epoxy and other basic powder coatings
  • PE, Polyethylene and Plastisol coatings
  • Zinc Flake, Zinc Aluminium Flake Coatings from Magni® Coatings
  • Ryton® Coatings from Solvay

Examples of Electrical Parts that are Coated at PPC include :

  • Bus bars used in Electrical Grid
