Transformer Rubber Pads

07.03.2024

Transformer rubber pads are specialist rubber sheets placed beneath transformers to isolate them from the floor. Metal housings and shielding casings emit continuous vibration that transmits noise into the surrounding area. These pads act as a vibration isolator for transformers, dampening mechanical movement, eliminating noise, and providing a barrier against transformer oil spills.


Oil-Resistant Transformer Mats – Additional Benefits

Rubber mats prevent friction between metal surfaces and absorb vibrations, stopping the transformer from shifting. They are used for transformer isolation and sealing, ensuring reliable and efficient operation. The rubber’s high dielectric properties also help prevent oil leakage.

Oil-Filled Power Transformers

Power transformers often contain insulating oil—a highly refined mineral oil used for dielectric strength. Rubber in contact with transformer oil can deteriorate, becoming brittle or cracked.

To combat this, NBR oil-resistant rubber pads are available. These pads resist oil, grease, petrol, and mineral oil, and possess strong physical properties. NBR rubber also offers excellent operating conditions, remaining flexible down to −40 °C.

Nitrile rubber (NBR) is widely used to produce oil-resistant seals and electrical insulating pads, effectively sealing high-voltage cables and components. It’s a common choice for transformer base mats and seals in both distribution and power transformers.

These oil-resistant rubber sheets are also ideal as workshop bench covers. Customers use them in utility rooms, oil depot pump houses, mechanical workshops, and even as protective floor mats under vehicles or agricultural machinery.


Which Rubber Best for Transformers?

Although NBR provides broad chemical resistance, Power Rubber offers a superior high-performance rubber option. This specially designed rubber resists temperatures up to +150 °C, and is compatible with a wide range of chemicals and oils. It resists oxidation and ozone degradation while maintaining excellent tensile and compression strength.

If you're seeking rubber pads that stand up to all types of transformer oil, endure extreme temperatures, and survive challenging environments, we invite you to get in touch.
