Grain Oriented Electrical Steel Coils and Strips
Grain oriented electrical steel is sometimes also described as silicon steel or magnetic steel. The material is available in conventional grades and in highly permeable grades with reduced core loss. Some of the grades are laser treated to reduce the magnetic domains and consequently reduce core loss.
All material is being supplied on both sides with an insulation coating which provides good electrical resistance.
