Your trusted partner for high-performance electrical insulation and thermal management
Product Overview
Mica board represents the gold standard in electrical insulation materials, combining the natural properties of mica minerals with advanced manufacturing techniques. This exceptional material delivers unmatched performance in demanding applications where conventional insulation materials fail.
Engineered for reliability and built to last, mica board provides superior electrical isolation, thermal stability, and mechanical strength. Whether you're designing power generation equipment, industrial furnaces, or precision electronics, mica board offers the performance and safety margins your applications demand.
Key Features
Superior Electrical Insulation
Delivers outstanding dielectric strength up to 20 kV/mm, ensuring safe operation in high-voltage applications. The natural crystalline structure provides consistent insulation properties even under extreme conditions.
Extreme Temperature Resistance
Operates continuously at temperatures up to 1000°C (1832°F) while maintaining structural integrity. This thermal stability comes from its unique silicate mineral composition that won't degrade under heat stress.
Excellent Machinability
Despite its mineral origins, mica board offers exceptional workability. It can be easily cut, drilled, punched, and shaped using standard machining tools, allowing for precise custom fabrication.
Chemical Inertness
Demonstrates remarkable resistance to acids, alkalis, and most organic solvents. This chemical stability ensures consistent performance in harsh industrial environments.
Fire Safety
Naturally non-combustible and acts as an effective fire barrier. Meets stringent fire safety requirements for electrical and construction applications.
Dimensional Stability
Maintains precise tolerances across wide temperature ranges with minimal thermal expansion, preventing system stress and component failure.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes mica board superior to other insulation materials?
Mica board combines exceptional electrical insulation, extreme temperature resistance, and mechanical durability in a single material. Unlike synthetic alternatives, its natural mineral composition provides long-term stability without degradation.
How do I select the right grade for my application?
Grade selection depends on your specific temperature, voltage, and mechanical requirements. Our technical team can help you choose between phlogopite (high-temperature applications) and muscovite (moderate temperature, cost-effective) grades.
Can mica board be machined to custom specifications?
Yes, mica board machines easily with standard tools. We offer custom cutting, drilling, and shaping services to meet your exact dimensional requirements.
What safety precautions should I follow when handling mica board?
Use standard safety equipment including dust masks and eye protection when cutting or machining. Work in well-ventilated areas to minimize dust exposure.
How should I store mica board to maintain quality?
Store sheets vertically or flat in dry conditions. Use protective interleaving material and avoid excessive stacking weight that could cause deformation.
Is mica board suitable for food contact applications?
Food-grade mica board meets FDA requirements for direct food contact in heating applications. Verify specific certifications for your intended use.
What's the shelf life of mica board?
When stored properly, mica board has an indefinite shelf life. The mineral composition doesn't degrade over time.
Can you provide material certifications?
Yes, we provide certificates of compliance, material test reports, and can arrange third-party testing when required for critical applications.
