Type 992 is a low-density pressboard which is designed for applications requiring a combination of electrical, mechanical and forming characteristics, such as barrier, gap spacers, end fillers, core tubes, and coil yokes. Nonelectrical applications include thermal barriers and gaskets. Type 992 offers a balance of superior formability, outstanding saturability and strong thermal performance, along with good electrical properties. This cost-effective pressboard product should only be used where the superior electrical properties of Type 993 are not required. Type 992 is available in two thicknesses – 1.6 and 3.2 mm (63 and 125 mil).
