ISONEL 31-398 INSULATING VARNISH

    
    DESCRIPTION
    
    ISONEL 31-398 is a general-purpose, modified polyester varnish for conventional dip
    
    and bake application. Specially formulated for use in abbreviated baking cycles, it
    
    cures quickly to a clear, tough, semirigid film. ISONEL 31-398 provides excellent 
    
    performance and economy in Class A (105 C) through Class H (180 C) design applications.
    
    
    
    ISONEL 31-398 is certified as meeting all requirements of military specification 
    
    MIL-I-24092 for Grade CB, Composition I, Class 155.
    
    RECOMMENDED USES
    
    ISONEL 31-398 is designed for general-purpose application on transformers, stators 
    
    and armatures.
