Solid Silicone Rubber
High-consistency solid silicone for compression molding, transfer molding and extrusion.
About this material
Solid silicone rubber — high-consistency rubber — arrives as a workable compound rather than a liquid. It is shaped by compression or transfer molding, or pushed through a die for extrusion. The material discussion therefore focuses on how the compound behaves in the tool and how it cures.
What this category covers
- High-consistency compounds for molded parts
- Extrusion grades for profiles, tubing and sheeting
- Peroxide and addition cure options
- Coloured compounds and pigmented stock
Typical applications
- Compression-molded gaskets and seals
- Transfer-molded precision parts
- Extruded profiles, cords and tubing
- Rollers, sheeting and pads
- Heat-resistant industrial components
What we confirm before quoting
These are the points that decide the grade. Sending them together shortens the first reply considerably.
| Parameter | What we need from you |
|---|---|
| Hardness (Shore A) | Target hardness and acceptable tolerance |
| Mooney viscosity | How the compound needs to flow in your tool or die |
| Curing system | Peroxide or addition cure, and your process temperature |
| Compression set | Sealing duty and operating temperature |
| Tensile strength | Load the part carries in service |
| Tear strength | Whether the part is cut, clamped or flexed repeatedly |
| Elongation at break | How much the part deforms before failing |
| Density | Weight targets and compound costing |
| Service temperature range | Continuous and peak operating temperatures |
| Colour | Colour reference or natural/translucent requirement |
Values below are the parameters we confirm for every order. Exact figures are grade-specific and are confirmed against your application before quoting — no generic numbers are published here.
Information to include in your inquiry
