Continuous EPDM Rubber Extrusion, Heat & Dilute Chemical Resistant Rubber Strips, Custom Shapes for Outdoor Equipment Sealing

Silicone sponge strip is also manufactured by our company. Silicone strip offers excellent sealing qualities together with compression set, ozone, UV and flame resistance. This more expensive material is designed for challenging applications where temperatures of -40 °C to +200 °C prevail, and is often used on items such as ovens, cookers and light lens fittings. Available in grey and white as standard, with a colour match scheme offered on larger quantities. Smooth skin appearance.

Flame retardant low smoke / low toxic silicone strips are also manufactured where required and are principally supplied to the London Underground, where the risk of fire spreading must be prohibited. In compliance with gas, smoke and fire safety standards, this particular silicone is self-extinguishing and will not emit harmful gases when ignited. With a temperature range of -60 °C to +250 °C and full compliance with UL94 V-0 regulations where public safety is of supreme significance, this bespoke silicone can be manufactured into silicone strip products to provide high temperature sealing solutions for numerous applications. Our silicone foam is also available as silicone sheet or silicone roll if required.

Nitrile / PVC blend strip is also manufactured by our company. Nitrile / PVC has a good temperature range of -40 °C to +140 °C. Its closed cell structure makes it impermeable to air and water, making it an ideal solution for sealing against air and water flow and higher temperatures. With superb heat absorption and good resistance to oil, most acids, UV and weathering, nitrile / PVC strip is also Class O fireproof rated. Nitrile / PVC foam is a slightly softer grade of foam ideal for cushioning and lagging purposes, but displays a poor compression set.

PVC foam strip is also manufactured by our company. PVC foam sealing strip is an excellent choice of material for applications requiring sealing against water and protection against UV. Traditionally used throughout the glazing industry, it is also suitable for a whole host of other applications.

Polyethylene foam strip is also manufactured by our company. Having a closed cell cross-linked cell structure, it is impermeable to both air and water flow. A lightweight and relatively inexpensive material offering strong rigidity and tear strength, with good thermal insulation and mechanical properties, it is available in various densities and colours depending on application. Smooth skin appearance. More common requirements for polyethylene foam sheeting include swimming pool and garden pond covers. PE foam also displays a very good temperature range from -40 °C to +90 °C depending on the grade selected. Our range of sheeting or cut parts can be supplied in a wide range of densities including LD18, LD33, LD45 and LD67. Our PE foam is also available as PE foam sheet or PE foam roll if required.

Polyurethane foam strip is also manufactured by our company. Its open cell structure makes it an ideal material for applications including fluid absorption, filtering air and water, and acoustic insulation. Its lightweight, inexpensive and flexible nature lends itself perfectly to packaging solutions, alleviating vibration problems that may be apparent. A temperature range of -40 °C to +100 °C. Available in grey and white colours.

Acoustic foam strip is also manufactured by our company. Its open cell structure lends itself as an ideal material for sound deadening purposes. Our acoustic foam is also available as acoustic foam sheet or acoustic foam roll if required. Acoustic foam sheet is used for acoustic treatment, i.e. sound deadening. It has an open cell structure and therefore attenuates airborne sound waves by increasing air resistance, thus decreasing the amplitude of the waves. The energy is then dissipated as heat.

Pre-compressed expanding foam tape is an open cell polyurethane foam impregnated with a modified acrylic dispersion, with no plasticizers and added flame retardant fillings. The tape is provided on one side with a strong self-adhesive acrylic adhesive. Expanding foam tapes are produced as an open cell polyurethane foam impregnated with neoprene, more commonly known as expanding polyurethane foam tape. The product expands to around 4–5 times its original thickness, making it an ideal solution for timber window frame sealing.

High temperature EPDM foam strip is also manufactured by our company. Where applications require a specific heat resistance in excess of the standard, we are able to offer a strip product that exceeds normal foam properties. Operating temperatures are 121 °C.
