MOLYKOTE® 3099 HVIC (High Voltage Insulator Coating) Compound
Greaselike silicone coating especially formulated to give electrical insulators long-term resistance to water filming and flashover. Designed to extend service life by maximizing performance in contact with high-voltage corona stress, ultraviolet light, water erosion, and particulate contamination.
-
Key Properties
NLGI Grade 2-3, charcoal, used primarily as a high voltage insulator coating.
-
Applications
Used to give a protective coating to electrical insulators. The consistency of the compound provides easy application to the required coating thickness. The gray opaque appearance of MOLYKOTE® 3099 HVIC Compound makes it easy to ensure a uniform and complete coating is obtained. For more detailed application information, see technical datasheet.

Performance Benefits
Easy to use In addition to a high level of flashover resistance, MOLYKOTE® 3099 HVIC Compound incorporates an arc-resistant filler that inhibits arc growth. This helps protect the insulator from glaze damage when the coating’s water repellency is significantly diminished and arcing is experienced. Another benefit of MOLYKOTE® 3099 HVIC Compound is the ease of handling. The compound is easy to spread, not stringy, and shows good adhesion to properly prepared insulators
