Insulated Flexible Copper Bars

Insulated Flexible Copper Bars are high-performance, bendable conductive components made from tinned copper laminated foils or pure copper strips, encapsulated with PVC, PE, or heat-shrink tubing insulation. Designed to carry high current in compact electrical environments, they offer excellent flexibility, conductivity, and safety. Also known as Flexible Insulated Copper Busbars, they are widely used in EV battery packs, switchgears, and power distribution systems due to their flame retardant and high conductivity properties.

2. How to Make an Insulated Flexible Copper Bar?

The production process of Insulated Flexible Copper Connectors involves:

  1. Copper Lamination: Stacked layers of high-conductivity tinned copper foil or pure copper conductors are laminated.

  2. Press Welding or Riveting: Ends are fused using molecular diffusion welding or press welding for strong conductivity.

  3. Insulation Application: The bar is encapsulated using heat shrink tubing, PVC insulation, or silicone sheaths depending on voltage class and fire-retardant needs.

  4. Customization: Holes, bends, and terminal shapes are CNC-machined according to design specs for custom insulated flexible copper connectors.

This process ensures the final product is RoHS compliant, UL certified, and rated for high current applications with excellent mechanical strength.


3. Insulated Flexible Copper Bars Are Used in Application Fields

The versatility of Insulated Copper Busbars allows them to be applied in many industries:

  • EV Battery Busbar Systems: For cell-to-cell and module interconnection.

  • Switchgear Copper Connectors: Used in compact cabinets requiring high current and limited space.

  • Power Distribution Systems: As low voltage flexible copper bars for energy routing.

  • Energy Storage Systems (ESS): For secure and heat-resistant energy transfer.

  • Industrial Electrical Panels: As flame retardant flexible copper connectors for safe power management.

  • Renewable Energy Installations: Solar and wind inverters using heat shrink insulated copper bars.

FAQ – Insulated Flexible Copper Bars

1. What materials are used in insulated flexible copper bars?

We use high-conductivity tinned copper foil, bare copper, or nickel-plated copper as the conductive core. The insulation layer can be made from PVC, PE, silicone rubber, or heat shrink tubing, depending on temperature, voltage, and flame-retardant requirements.

2. What’s the difference between insulated flexible copper bars and rigid copper busbars?

  • Flexible copper busbars consist of multiple layers of copper foil, allowing for easy bending and vibration absorption.

  • Rigid busbars are solid and require more space, offering less installation flexibility.

  • Insulated types provide safety protection, reduce arcing risk, and are ideal for compact installations.

3. Can I customize the length, hole size, or terminal shape?

Yes. G and N Fortune Limited provides fully customized Insulated Flexible Busbar. You can define:

  • Length and width

  • Number of copper layers

  • Terminal hole size and pattern

  • Insulation type and color

  • Bend angles and shapes

Just send your drawing or specs — our engineers will take care of the rest.

4. What are the typical current ratings of these copper bars?

Current ratings depend on cross-sectional area, copper layer thickness, and insulation. Common configurations support from 100A to 2000A. We will help you calculate the correct size for your application.

5. Are your copper bars certified?

Yes. Our insulated copper connectors meet RoHS, REACH, and UL 94-V0 flame-retardant standards. Test reports and compliance certificates can be provided upon request.

6. What’s the typical lead time for custom orders?

  • Samples or prototypes: 5–7 working days

  • Bulk orders: 10–15 working days, depending on volume and complexity

Rush orders are available for urgent projects.

7. What industries use insulated flexible copper bars?

They are widely used in:

  • EV battery packs and modules

  • Switchgear and control cabinets

  • Renewable energy inverters

  • Power distribution systems

  • Energy storage systems (ESS)

  • Industrial electrical applications

8. How should I install flexible insulated copper busbars?

  • Avoid sharp bends—respect the minimum bending radius

  • Ensure all terminal holes align properly

  • Use appropriate torque settings for fastening

  • Confirm the insulation layer is not damaged during installation

Installation guides can be provided if needed.
