120kN aerodynamic GLASS INSULATOR toughened glass insulators U120BP/127M
Product Introduction
120kN Open-profile / aerodynamic toughened glass insulators are specially designed for overhead power lines, perfectly adapted to dense urban areas and space-constrained working conditions. Balancing excellent electrical performance and practical structure, they are the ideal choice for high-demand power transmission scenarios.
The open-profile design breaks through the traditional pollution accumulation limitation, enabling easier and more efficient cleaning and maintenance. While ensuring reliable operation of power lines, it significantly reduces daily operation and maintenance costs, cuts labor and equipment investment, and is suitable for high-frequency inspection requirements.
With outstanding electrical and mechanical strength, they can easily handle complex working conditions such as heavy industrial loads, coastal salt spray, and desert drought. Whether for dense laying in urban areas or harsh environments in remote regions, they deliver stable performance and achieve full working condition compatibility.
For extreme scenarios such as deserts, arid areas, and high-dust environments, we adopt an exclusive under-rib-free (smooth under-umbrella) design. This structure completely prevents the accumulation of solid pollutants such as dust and sand on the lower surface of the insulator, and realizes automatic self-cleaning by natural wind, fundamentally blocking the path of sand pollution flashover, ensuring continuous and stable operation in harsh wind and sand environments without compromising insulation performance.
In 2025, Jiangxi Huayao Electric Co., Ltd. exported 875,000 pieces of open-profile glass insulators to Algeria, which were specially applied to the power transmission project in the Sahara Desert region. At present, this batch of products is in good operating condition. Verified by long-term monitoring, their insulation performance and mechanical stability meet the standards, fully confirming the excellent quality and environmental adaptability of the products.
Jiangxi Huayao Electric Co., Ltd. takes professional technology as the core and continues to deepen its focus in the power insulation field. With excellent performance and perfect adaptability, open-profile glass insulators have become the preferred solution for power engineering projects at home and abroad, and can meet the power transmission and stable operation needs of different regions and various working conditions.

Good anti-pollution flashover performance of aerodynamic Insulator
The skirt structure of the aerodynamic insulator can effectively reduce the deposition of filth. The distance between the umbrella skirt and shape design makes it difficult for dust, salt spray and other filthy substances to accumulate on the surface of the insulator. For example, in industrial pollution areas or coastal salt spray environment, traditional insulators may lead to a decline in insulation performance due to the accumulation of filth, but aerodynamic insulators can take advantage of their structural advantages to make filth more easily washed away under natural conditions such as wind and rain.
