Mechanical Engineering

A high level of complexity combined with very high requirements demand high-performance products.

Highly complex, highly sophisticated, and versatile designs lead to very high requirements for the general properties in connection with unique and special properties. In this industry, the well-balanced properties of silicone products that can be improved specifically depending on the application are in high demand.  Very soft to very hard products with very good resilience are used in this industry as well as foamed products to compensate for tolerances and to manufacture heat and sound insulation.

 

Typical Applications

  • Housing seals
  • Cover seals
  • Rubber/metal connections as vibration dampers
  • Cable protection tubes, protection profiles
  • Heating tubes
  • Edge protection seals
  • Membranes
