Battery Cover Insulators

	Molded Battery Insulators
Protection of batteries exposed to engine compartment thermal environment has been successfully treated using MAP’s fiberglass or polyester insulators. Important criteria encompassing critical handling concerns, minimum installation time, securing the insulator, provision for inspection and removing, packaging technique and product longevity are all addressed by MAP’s engineering service group. From thermal solution - to design stages - to production (including supplied drawing), MAP sales and engineering group stand ready to service your needs and solve your high temperature battery concerns.
