Silicone Foam

Provides air and water-tight seals for HVAC, automotive, and electronics applications, with better high-temperature sealing than EPDM or neoprene.

Features & Benefits of Silicone Foam

Extreme Temperature Resistance: Silicone foam maintains its flexibility, structure, and performance across an exceptionally wide temperature range, from extreme cold to high heat. Where others foams can degrade, become brittle or lose elasticity.
Inherent Flame Retardancy: Silicone foam is naturally flame-retardant without requiring significant additives. Additives often compromise other properties like flexibility or durability.
Broad Chemical Resistance: Silicone foam resists degradation from a wide range of chemicals, oils, solvents, and UV exposure without requiring special coatings or treatments.
Resistance to Aging: Silicone foam resists cracking, hardening, or degrading over time, even under continuous environmental stress (e.g., UV, ozone, or temperature cycling).

What is Silicone Foam used for?

Seals and Gaskets:

Used in railcars, ships, and heavy machinery for sealing against water, dust, and temperature fluctuations, leveraging its weather and chemical resistance.

Weatherproofing:

Applied in outdoor glazing or cladding systems to resist UV, ozone, and temperature extremes.

Medical and Healthcare:

Employed in orthopedic supports or wheelchair cushions for comfort and durability.

Construction and Infrastructure:

Used in fire doors, curtain walls, and building joints to provide sealing with inherent flame retardancy, meeting strict building codes.
