AMA Class F Electrical Insulation Material

Material AG001045 Category

AMA Class F Electrical Insulation Material

AMA Insulation is a high-performance electrical insulation laminate made from polyester film bonded between two layers of aramid paper, delivering excellent mechanical strength, dielectric performance, and Class F heat resistance.

AMA Insulation is a high-performance Class F (155°C) electrical insulation laminate engineered for demanding motor and electrical equipment applications.

This three-layer composite construction consists of:

  • Polyester (PET) film core

  • Aramid insulating paper laminated on both sides

The combination delivers exceptional dielectric strength, thermal stability and mechanical durability, making AMA insulation ideal for slot insulation, phase insulation and electrical gaskets in low-voltage motors and electrical tools.

AMA provides a more economical alternative to traditional NMN (Nomex® Mylar® Nomex®) insulation laminates while maintaining excellent electrical and thermal performance.

Key Features

  • Class F thermal insulation rating (155°C)

  • Excellent dielectric strength

  • Excellent mechanical strength

  • High dielectric breakdown voltage

  • Strong resistance to delamination

  • Consistent thickness tolerance

  • Excellent dimensional stability

  • IEC 60626-3 compliant

Construction

The AMA Laminate Structure consisting of Aramid Paper / PET Film / Aramid Paper combines the dielectric strength of polyester film with the thermal resistance and mechanical strength of aramid paper, providing balanced tensile performance in both the machine direction (MD) and the transverse direction (TD).

This composite structure provides increased cohesiveness resulting in a material that will not delaminate or blister under normal conditions.

Compliance

This material is manufactured to meet the material and performance requirements of IEC 60626-3. This is based on manufacturer test data and quality control documentation.

Applications

AMA insulation material is widely used in:

  • Slot insulation in low-voltage motors

  • Phase insulation

  • Electrical motor rewinding

  • Electrical gaskets

  • Transformers

  • Generators

  • Electrical tools

  • General electrical equipment

Availability

AMA insulation material is available in 6 thicknesses: 0.15mm, 0.2mm, 0.25mm, 0.3mm, 0.35mm & 0.4mm. Rolls are 990mm wide as standard and full rolls measure 50m in length. We are able to supply this material by the metre, as a full roll or in cut components to your specification.
