Silicone Rolls

ElastaPro’s silicone rolls are engineered with processing efficiency and customization in mind. Engineers benefit from several key capabilities:

  • Roll Length Control: The 33″ maximum roll length ensures manageable handling while supporting continuous production.
  • Sheet Slitting: Rolls can be slit to precise widths, enabling tailored solutions for automated cutting, gasketing, or sealing operations.
  • PSA Adhesive Application: Adhesive backing reduces assembly complexity, eliminates secondary bonding steps, and ensures reliable installation.
  • Material Variety: Solid, foam, and sponge rolls are available in multiple grades, durometers, and colors, meeting diverse industry specifications.

These features allow engineers to streamline workflows, reduce waste, and improve assembly efficiency, while maintaining compliance with industry standards.

Solid Silicone Rolls

Solid silicone rolls are the backbone of many industrial sealing and gasketing applications. ElastaPro produces solid silicone sheets in roll form that can be slit to custom widths, enabling engineers to optimize material usage and reduce waste during fabrication.

Key Properties

  • Durometer Range: 20 to 90 Shore A, covering soft elastomers to rigid formulations.
  • Grades Available: Commercial, general purpose, FDA-compliant, fuel and solvent resistant, electrically conductive, fiberglass reinforced, medical, high strength, flame retardant, and extreme temperature grades.
  • Thermal Resistance: Standard grades withstand up to ~300°F, while specialized formulations resist 500–572°F.
  • Chemical Resistance: Excellent inertness against water, ozone, UV, and many chemicals.

Engineering Applications

  • Gaskets and Seals: Precision die-cut or water-jet cut components for aerospace and automotive systems.
  • Medical Devices: FDA and USP Class VI compliant grades for biocompatible seals and enclosures.
  • Electronics: Electrically conductive grades for EMI shielding and insulation.

Roll Specifications

  • Maximum Roll Length: 33″ — a practical limit that balances handling and manufacturing efficiency.
  • Slitting Options: Sheets can be slit to narrower widths, supporting custom roll dimensions for automated production lines.
  • PSA Adhesives: Pressure-sensitive adhesive backing can be applied, simplifying installation and reducing assembly time.

For engineers, solid silicone rolls provide a predictable, spec-driven material that integrates seamlessly into high-performance designs.

Foam Silicone Rolls

Foam silicone rolls offer a cellular structure that combines resilience with compressibility, making them ideal for cushioning, vibration damping, and sealing applications where conformability is critical.

Key Properties

  • Closed-Cell Structure: Prevents fluid ingress, ensuring reliable sealing in harsh environments.
  • Density Options: Available in multiple grades to balance compressive strength and flexibility.
  • Thermal and Chemical Resistance: Retains silicone’s inherent stability across wide temperature ranges and chemical exposures.

Engineering Applications

  • Thermal Insulation: Used in aerospace and automotive systems to manage heat transfer.
  • Vibration Damping: Protects sensitive electronics and mechanical assemblies from shock and vibration.
  • Sealing: Provides conformable seals in enclosures, HVAC systems, and industrial equipment.

Roll Specifications

  • Maximum Roll Length: 33″, consistent with ElastaPro’s production capabilities.
  • Custom Widths: Foam rolls can be slit to precise dimensions, ensuring compatibility with automated gasketing and sealing processes.
  • PSA Adhesives: Adhesive backing enhances ease of installation, particularly in applications requiring quick assembly or field service.

Foam silicone rolls deliver lightweight, resilient solutions where engineers must balance sealing performance with material efficiency.

Sponge Silicone Rolls

Sponge silicone rolls offer greater compressibility and softness. These rolls are particularly suited for applications requiring low-closure force seals and cushioning.

Key Properties

  • Closed-Cell Structure: Provides excellent sealing.
  • Soft Durometer Range: Typically lower than solid silicone, enabling seals that conform under minimal pressure.
  • Environmental Resistance: Maintains performance under UV, ozone, and moisture exposure.

Engineering Applications

  • Low-Force Seals: Ideal for enclosures where closure force is limited, such as lightweight housings or delicate assemblies.
  • Cushioning Pads: Used in packaging, medical devices, and electronics to protect components.
  • Thermal Barriers: Provides insulation while maintaining flexibility.

Roll Specifications

  • Maximum Roll Length: 33″, ensuring consistency across ElastaPro’s roll products.
  • Slitting Options: Engineers can specify custom widths to match gasket profiles or assembly requirements.
  • PSA Adhesives: Adhesive-backed sponge rolls simplify installation, particularly in applications requiring field-applied seals.

Sponge silicone rolls are a specialized solution for engineers seeking compressibility and ease of integration in sealing and cushioning applications.
