Ultra Soft Silicone IOTA-BF-2000
IOTA-BF-2000 Ultra Soft
is a highly compressible silicone foam.The combination of low weight and
softness makes this flame retardant foam ideal for transportation, industrial,
and electronics applications where low closure force and dust sealing are
critical. IOTA Silicones are available in various thicknesses and manufactured
in roll form to allow fabricators to easily convert the material to the proper
dimensions.
Features and Benefits
Ultra low softness
allows designers to use less force to seal enclosures and still protect their
device from theenvironment.
High compressibility
allows material to conform to variable width gaps, thereby allowing more design
flexibility.
Good memory and
low stress relaxation reduces maintenance costs associated with gasket failures
due to compression set and softening.
Resistance to
ultraviolet light, ozone, extreme temperatures, and flame
enables consistent performance
in all environments.
Applications
Vibration isolation
in electronic components
and transportation vehicles
Low closure force
gaskets within portable electronics such as laptops and LCD screens within
aircraft and rail interiors
Fire retardant thermal
insulation
Installation
Available with a
pressure-sensitive adhesive on one or two sides to allow easy application to a
variety of surfaces.
