Electrical Transformers
The Most Reliable Transformers Have Paramount Tube Insulation in Them
At Paramount Tube, we understand that superior insulation is vital to ensuring transformer performance and safety. That’s why we develop custom transformer insulation tubing with advanced materials and structural designs that keep electrical equipment working safely at peak efficiency for its entire service life.
Paramount Tube is the premier name in tubes for a wide variety of applications, but we are especially well known for the remarkable durability of our tubes for electrical transformers. We use high performance materials like electrical grade crepe paper and specialized manufacturing processes to ensure our engineered solutions can withstand even the most difficult operating environments.
Paramount thoughtfully designs insulator tube products to save installers time and effort. Our Bend-EZ®/Crepe Paper Tubing resist tearing and splitting and are the perfect sleeve for oil-filled transformers. And, our electrical tubes are also designed with flexible crepe paper that has an increased rate of oil absorption, which ensures better dielectric performance when compared to conventional Synthetic Resin Bonded Paper (SRBP).

The Right Materials Make All the Difference
Crepe paper tubes are so commonly used in electrical insulation applications such as in transformers because of its proven dielectric performance. From small commercial electrical products all the way up to industrial power and distribution transformers, crepe paper is one of the most important materials ensuring the safety and performance of transformers of all types and sizes.
The quality and implementation of the insulating material has a direct impact on the lifespan and reliability of the transformer. Our Bend-EZ® solution can also flex under extreme stress without collapsing, making it ideal for challenging installation conditions and rugged operating environments.
