Non-Conductive Silicone Rubber and Elastomers
Series 300

East Coast Shielding offers a wide variety of rubber elastomers and cellular profiles to meet your application needs. Below you will find some general information about the characteristics and physical properties of many of our standard elastomers. For additional information about a specific elastomer, please contact us directly.

    . Silicone
    . Neoprene
    . Sponge

Silicone:

    . High resistance to both high and low temperature extremes.
    . Excellent weathering properties and resistance to ozone and oxygen attack.
    . Long service life.


Available in solid and cellular profiles
Standard Thickness (in.); solid silicone: 1/32 to 1/4; silicone sponge: 1/16 to 1/2
Other thicknesses available upon request (see section on Laminating).
Order with or without PSA (pressure sensitive adhesive).

Also available:
Fireblock silicone foam, flourosilicone, and vacuum blanket material.

Neoprene:

    . Great all-purpose elastomer with resistance to ozone, sunlight, oxidation, and various        petroleum derivatives.
    . Good resistance to water.
    . Good tensile strength properties.
    . May be blended with SBR to achieve a more economically priced material.

Available in solid and cellular profiles.
Standard Thickness (in.); solid neoprene: 1/32 to 1/2; neoprene sponge: 1/32 to 1
Other thicknesses available upon request (see section on Laminating).
Order with or without PSA (pressure sensitive adhesive).

Sponge:

Neoprene, Nitrile, Silicone, and Viton are also available in sponge form. Closed cell sponge is preferred for applications requiring high compressibility. Open cell sponge is preferred for cushioning applications where sealing is not an issue. The basic physical and chemical properties are the same as for the elastomers.
