  1. LY Steel
  2. thickness × 100 (mm)
  3. grain-oriented
  4. G high permeability / H domain-refined
  5. P1.7/50 × 100 (W/kg)

Insulation coating

Inorganic coating · interlaminar resistance guaranteed ≥ 30 Ω·mm² per lamination · adhesion class B or better · uniform thickness for a high stacking factor · good punching and welding behaviour.
