  1. Silicone Samples You Can Hold in Your Hand

    Leave a Comment

    Silicone samples are small pieces of silicone material used for testing, evaluation, and product development. They can be simple sheets demonstrating texture and flexibility or molded parts replicating a final product design.  We can offer you some in the form of a convenient keychain. Here’s why.

    Why silicone samples are needed

    Material evaluation

    • Testing properties: Samples are used to evaluate material properties such as shore hardness (the material’s resistance to indentation), elasticity, tensile strength, and durability.
    • A tactile experience: Manufacturers may send out samples, such as keychain sheets, so clients can physically see and touch the material to make informed decisions for their products.
    • Comparing options: In manufacturing, samples allow designers and engineers to compare different grades and formulations, including electrically conductive, medical-grade, or food-grade silicone, to select the right material for a specific application.
