Flat Copper Battery Busbar With Heat Shrink Tube

Flat Copper Battery Busbar With Heat Shrink Tube

The Flat Copper Battery Busbar with Heat Shrink Tube is an electrical connection component specifically designed for new energy battery systems, energy storage systems, and high-current connection applications. Featuring a high-conductivity copper busbar as its core conductor and insulated externally with heat-shrink tubing, the product meets high-current transmission requirements while ensuring electrical isolation, safety protection, and structural optimization. Compared to traditional bare copper busbars, this insulated version utilizes an integrated insulation design to effectively mitigate short-circuit risks—such as those caused by space constraints, contact with foreign objects, or operational errors—during installation, while also enhancing the neatness and reliability of the system's internal layout.

Products Description

 

Flat Copper Battery Busbar with Heat Shrink Tube

These Flat Copper Battery Busbar with Heat Shrink Tubes are manufactured from high-quality copper using precision rolling or stamping processes to create a flat profile. They are encased in high-shrink-ratio, flame-retardant heat-shrink tubing, ensuring complete insulation of the conductor. This rigid connection design provides a low-resistance, high-strength electrical path, while the heat-shrink tubing offers excellent electrical isolation, mechanical protection, and environmental resilience.
Key Product Features:

Highly Conductive Flat Structure: The large-cross-section flat copper busbar minimizes resistance and heat generation, supporting high continuous current transmission.
Reliable Heat-Shrink Insulation: The heat-shrink tubing conforms tightly to the busbar surface, creating a uniform, void-free insulating layer.
Rigid Connection Stability: The rigid copper busbar ensures precise positioning, low contact resistance, and long-term stability.
Comprehensive Protection: The heat-shrink tubing is flame-retardant, abrasion-resistant, oil-resistant, and moisture-proof, making it suitable for the demanding conditions of battery compartments.

Application and Production Technology Flat Copper Battery Busbar with Heat Shrink Tube

Detail Showcase: Quality Indicators from an Engineering Perspective

Heat-shrink tubing fit

In high-quality products, the heat-shrink tubing conforms perfectly to the copper busbar surface, free of air bubbles, wrinkles, or delamination. Pressing with a finger should reveal no gaps between the tubing and the Insulated Heat-Shrinkable Copper Bars.

01

Insulation extension at ends

The extension of the heat-shrink tubing beyond the ends of the Heat Shrinkable Busbar Insulating Tape is uniform and consistent, with no misalignment or damage. This extension is a critical feature for providing adequate creepage distance.

02

Insulation integrity at bends

The heat-shrink tubing at bends transitions smoothly without bunching, thinning due to stretching, or cracking. Bends are the areas where insulation is most susceptible to damage.

03

Surface finish consistency

The plating on the Copper Busbar with Heat Shrink Tube Insulation surface (including terminal contact areas) is uniform, with no peeling or oxidation. The boundary between the covered and uncovered sections is distinct and neat.

04

Color uniformity

The color of the heat-shrink tubing is consistent (especially for the orange high-voltage warning color), with no color variation or fading. Uneven color may indicate material or process issues.

High dielectric strength and creepage distance

By selecting highly flame-retardant heat-shrinkable materials, the insulation voltage of the product can reach the kV level, fully meeting the insulation requirements of the high-voltage system of new energy vehicles. The design strictly controls the creepage distance and electrical clearance to ensure that surface flashover does not occur in humid and salt spray environments.

Environmental aging resistance

The battery pack will experience temperature shocks from extreme cold to extreme heat throughout its life cycle. Our heat-shrinkable tubing has been cross-linked and radiated, and has a stable molecular structure. It will not be embrittled or cracked in a high-temperature environment for a long time, and its service life is the same as that of the entire vehicle.

Anti-vibration wear

There may be a risk of friction between the hard busbar and the surrounding structural parts. Heat shrink tubing acts as a layer of "soft armor" and provides excellent wear protection. Even if the Pure Solid Copper Busbar with Heat Shrink Tubing vibrates slightly, the bushing is in contact with the structural parts, avoiding the risk of a short circuit caused by wear of the copper bar body.
