Typical Properties of Medium Density Fiberglass Reinforced Closed Cell Silicone Sponge
Description: Medium density fiberglass reinforced closed cell silicone sponge material designed for use in gaskets applications that require a soft compressible material. This material offers users a closed cell silicone sponge material with excellent tensile strength and material dimensional stability. Medium density fiberglass reinforced closed cell silicone sponge offers resistance to low and high temperatures and provides users with a service temperature of -103°F to +450°F. The fiberglass gives this medium density silicone sponge material dimensional stability, which can be useful in cutting close tolerance parts and provides excellent UV and ozone resistant and takes a low compression set. Medium density fiberglass reinforced closed cell silicone sponge is formulated to meet the physical requirements of AMS3195.
M&P Sealing’s closed cell silicone sponge gasket material is available in a wide range of densities from soft to extra-firm with varying densities and formulations available in between. Medium density fiberglass reinforced closed cell silicone sponge can be converted into rolls ranging from 1/4″ wide up to 36″ in width. Available in grey, the surface has a fine fabric finish on both sides and can be manufactured in rolls or sheets with a thickness range from as thin as 1/32″, to as thick as 2″. M&P Sealing has the ability to supply medium density fiberglass reinforced closed cell silicone sponge without adhesive or choose from either our standard acrylic adhesive or our high-temperature acrylic adhesive. M&P Sealing has the capacity to fabricate medium density fiberglass reinforced closed cell silicone sponge by die-cutting or waterjet cutting to meet your design and production requirements.
