Silicone mouldings offer high temperature resistance, as well as great release and electrical insulating qualities. As a result, they are widely employed in a variety of applications across several sectors. We provide a wide range of Silicone rubber compounds, including food-grade, flame retardant, and metal-detecting alternatives. Silicone mouldings may be produced to order in a variety of shore hardnesses and colours to meet your specifications. It may produce quotations using drawings or high-quality samples.
