Our side expansion bushings are engineered with precision, utilizing high-quality silicone rubber or EPDM that offers excellent tracking resistance and hydrophobicity. This design prevents surface leakage currents and flashovers, even in highly polluted or humid environments, ensuring consistent performance over the bushing's entire service life. The composite material is also resistant to UV radiation and ozone, preventing premature aging and cracking. For clients seeking OEM pad-mounted transformer supplier services, we integrate these robust bushings into our complete solutions, guaranteeing a seamless and dependable interface throughout the distribution network.
