Silicone rubber

Silicone presents many advantages for proper sealing and insulation. Thanks to its unique properties, silicone often allows you to eliminate extra steps, such as cutting or vulcanizing, bringing down your total manufacturing costs.

Description and properties

Unlike other rubber materials, silicone can withstand extreme variations in temperature (-80℉ to 550℉). Its insulating properties and natural flexibility make it suitable for a wide variety of applications. You can also match it to any Pantone / RAL colour.
