Silicone Sponge Sheet - General use
Expanded closed cell (skinned) silicone sponge sheeting offers many of the performance benefits associated with solid silicone, but in a softer and more compliant form. Silicone Sponge Sheet and strips are available in various sizes, densities, colours and with self-adhesive backing on request.
- Wide operating temperature – silicone sponge has a temperature range of -60C to 260C
- Water sealing – the closed cell structure allows for good water sealing with relatively low compressive forces.
- Compression set resistance – silicone offers excellent compression set resistance (ability to rebound to original thickness), especially at higher temperatures, compared to most rubber material. Low compression set silicone sponges are available for even better performance than general purpose grades.
- UV and ozone resistance – silicone products have excellent UV and ozone resistance due in part to their organic backbone. This provides long-term performance.
- Rugged – when silicone is required, silicone sponge parts are more durable than some other products openly available.
- Outdoor gasketing – considering all the above benefits, silicone sponge is a good material choice for outdoor environments, from the arctic to the desert.
| General specification | |
| Applications: | When a soft, readily deformable rubber is needed, such as for high-temperature seals and gaskets, general-use sponge silicone rubber is a good choice. To make assembly simpler, pressure-sensitive adhesive backing is included for all of the sheets and punched pieces. |
| Resistance to: | Silicone rubber has excellent resistance to ozone, oxidation, ultraviolet light, corona discharge, cosmic radiation, ionising radiation and weathering in general. Typical radiation resistance is greater than 10 Grays (greater than 10 rads). |
| Temperature resistance °С | -60C to 260C |
| Color | Standard: White |
| Approvals: | Meets the flammability requirements of FAR 25/JAR25/CS 25 Appendix F, Part 1 (a) (1) (iv) and (a) (1) (v) horizontal flammability test and Automotive Standard Part 571FMVSS302 |
