Silicone profile

roundsealing

Silicone foam articles Silicone foam articles are characterised mainly by melr predominantly closed cell structure, which is responsible for very low water absorption. It is possible to develop the outer skin more strongly to form an integral skin. The cell structure can vary within certain limits and tolerances. Foam profiles - squares and cords - show high compression with very little exerted force and also exhibit good restoring forces, which guarantees extreme sealing qualities over a long period of time during which the material does not become brittle, if used properly. Thanks to their compressibility, their resistance to high temperatures (up to +250 °C) and their good sound and thermal insulation, these profiles, extruded in a continuous process, are particularly suitable as door seals for industrial furnaces, as boiler seals and as insulators for lamps. Foam stampings have proved particularly sucessful as seals in electrical pin and socket connectors.
