The invention relates to a method of producing a high-tension insulator
including an elongated central solid or hollow body (1), a synthetic
material shield layer (6) and one or more synthetic material weathersheds
(3) by the following steps:
applying said synthetic material shield layer (6) to said solid or hollow
body by molding or extrusion;
molding said synthetic material weathersheds (3); one of the synthetic
materials of said shield layer (6) and the synthetic material of said
weathersheds (3) being partly cross-linked and the other of said synthetic
materials being at least partly cross-linked.
locating said weathersheds (3) at a predetermined site on said shield layer
(6); and
totally cross-linking the thus formed blank of said high-tension insulator.
