An insulator is a material that does not conduct electricity or heat. Insulators can be made of many different materials, just like in real life, although the item is usually treated as if it were made of rubber and are interchangeable as the original material is not considered.

Production

It can be crafted from several materials, listing from best to worst (best as in produces the most insulators, worst being it produces the least):
