Red silicone sponge sheet for high temperature sealing up to 428°F

Silicone Sponge For High Temperatures

The Silicone Sponge Rubber is an open cell sponge based on silicone rubber, special for high temperature stamping machines, excellent as a seal in oven doors for food and heat treatment, it has a strong red color.

Silicone sponge has memory, so it can be subjected to temperature pressures and will recover its normal state after pressure is released. For solid silicone rubber, see silicone for high temperatures.

Silicone Sponge

Silicone sponge rubber is used in the food industry, sugar industry, candy industry, printing industry, silk screen printing, among others. This material can also be supplied in square ingots to be used as seals in oven doors, peepholes, boilers, among others. In conclusion, this gasket is used wherever a softer seal is required compared to solid silicone rubber.

Black natural rubber sponge for gaskets and anti-vibration mounts

Natural Rubber Sponge

Natural rubber sponge in black color is excellent for making all types of gaskets or flanges where maximum cushioning and flexibility of the gasket parts is required. Natural rubber sponge is also used to manufacture bearings or anti-vibration mounts, due to its memory and its great capacity to absorb vibration. It can also be used as a support in some specific cases.

Great for making all types of gaskets or flanges which require maximum cushioning and flexibility of the workpiece. For vibration isolation, see acoustic insulation.

Natural rubber sponge is excellent for making all types of gaskets or flanges where maximum cushioning and flexibility of the parts to be made is required.

Natural Rubber Sponge Applications

  1. Packings, seals or dampers that require high resilience or recovery and/or are subjected to continuous work requiring high durability as well as a low rate of liquid absorption.
  2. Very useful as a "rebound" in swages.
  3. Extensively used in the tire industry, in the footwear industry, and importantly in the manufacture of hoses for machinery and engines, conveyor belts.
  4. It usually consists of one part styrene and three parts butadiene.

Frequently Asked Questions about Silicone Sponge

What is silicone sponge?

Silicone sponge is an open-cell sponge based on silicone rubber. It offers excellent resistance to extreme temperatures (up to 428°F), good weathering durability and memory (recovers its normal state after pressure is released). It is softer than solid silicone rubber, making it ideal for sealing applications requiring mild compressibility.

What is silicone sponge used for?

Silicone sponge is used for sublimation plates, oven sealing, high-temperature packings, gaskets requiring mild compressibility, and applications in the food, sugar, candy, printing and silk screen industries. It is also used in the stamping and automotive industries.

What is the temperature range of silicone sponge?

Silicone sponge has a temperature range of -58°F to 428°F (-50°C to 220°C). It offers excellent outdoor resistance and medium oil resistance.

What is the difference between silicone sponge and solid silicone rubber?

Silicone sponge is softer and more compressible than solid silicone rubber. It is used where a softer seal is required, while solid silicone rubber is used for more demanding mechanical applications. Both share excellent high-temperature resistance.
