Silicone Sponge Section

Silicone sponge sections has fantastic compression set values. They are particularly suited to use in high temperature seals and gaskets, where a soft, easily deformed rubber is required. The section can be supplied in coils, cut lengths or fabricated into endless rings of various sizes using our extensive joining equipment. TYM will be pleased to assist with your requirements for silicone sponge. This diverse material has been increasing in popularity steadily in the last decade and where applications demand the physical properties and characteristics of solid silicone rubber, but in an alternative sponge form, we recognise the importance of supplying the right quality and grade for your application.
