Foam Gaskets
Foam gaskets or silicone foam gas kets
are very similar to silicone sponge gaskets, but the difference is how the foam
gaskets are manufactured. Foam gaskets range in cell structure, from open cell
to mainly closed cell. The open cell foam gaskets are used for shock or
vibration applications, and the closed cell foam gaskets are used for
environmental seals. Foam gaskets made from silicone are considered to be low
temperature and high temperature gaskets, because silicone performs well in
extreme temperatures. Silicone foam gaskets are also extremely stable under UV,
and have a flame rating of UL94-V0, and are a perfect choice for electrical
enclosure gaskets.
