We stock a variety of
foams and they are all available with or without adhesive backing.
These foams can be made in to slit rolls to any width or die cut in
to strips, pads, discs or bespoke shapes to suit your application.
Here are just some of the foams that are converted at RGH�
EPDM Foam
EPDM foam is medium to high density, closed cell foam with good
ageing, ozone and UV resistance. Available in black and white with
medium to high temperature resistance. Flexible and durable
gasketing material which can also have adhesive applied to one or
both sides.
Polyethylene
Foam
Polyethylene (PE) foam is a closed cell foam available in a wide
range of densities. PE foam is generally lightweight compared to
other closed cell foams but also surprisingly strong. It has good
chemical resistance and its aging properties means that it will not
deteriorate and go brittle over time.
Semi-Closed
Cell Foam
Semi-closed cell foams have similar flexibility and compressibility
to open cell foams but when under compression they have excellent
sealing capabilities similar to closed cell foams. Semi-closed cell
foam has slower recovery and is ideal for a variety of joint-filling
and sealing applications where there are uneven or irregular
surfaces. RGH�s semi closed cell foams are highly durable and offer
superior whether and ozone resistance.
Neoprene
Sponge
Medium to high density, closed cell foam, good tear and chemical
resistance along with reasonable temperature resistance. Flexible
and good aging properties meaning that it will not deteriorate and
go brittle over time. Flame retardant and preferred to EPDM when oil
and grease are present. Self adhesive can also be applied to one or
both sides.
Polyurethane
Foam
Polyurethane foam is an open cell, lightweight yet durable foam that
is commonly used for cushioning purposes but also has very good
insulation properties that provide protection from heat and noise.
Generally low in density has good recovery, good temperature
resistance and flame retardancy.
Reticulated
Foam
Reticulated foam or filter foam is an extremely lightweight with
completely open cells. These foams are developed for applications
where cell structure and porosity are important factors. Because the
cell size can be engineered to meet your specific requirements,
reticulated foam can play an important role wherever any air, oil or
dust filters are required.
Silicone
Sponge
Silicone sponge is a closed cell material with exceptionally good
sealing, cushioning and insulating properties and is capable of
working in very high tempertures. Temperature resisitance of
silicone sponge can be in excess of 200�C which makes it ideal for
use in the most demanding of applications. Also available with flame
rating of UL94V-O, low smoke and low toxicity compliance. |
Double sided foam Tape |
RGH stock a range of
double sided foam tapes suitable for bonding, sealing, cushioning
and mounting applications. From bonding two pieces of card to fixing
metal structures, RGH will have the foam suitable for your
requirement.
Standard white double sided foam is available in any width of slit
roll and ranges from 0.8mm thick to 3mm thick. Double sided foam
pads and discs are available in any size and bespoke gaskets can
also be produced.
RGH also stock a range of 3M foam acrylic tapes which are commonly
used for more demanding applications. Used commonly within the
automotive, marine and aerospace industies for bonding materials and
replacing mechanical fixings such as rivets and screws. This
improves the appearance of your application and can also reduce the
weight of it. RGH can die cut these materials for you or present
them in slit rolls.
Our double sided tape range includes:
- Tissue Tapes
- Polyester Tapes
- Pure Acrylic Tapes
- Banner tape
- Toffee Tape |
Case Inserts |
RGH design and manufacture
custom case inserts from a wide range of foams to suit
RGH�s in-house CAD experts will make the design process as simple as
possible and help you to create the perfect solution, first time.
By using the latest in digital plotter technologies, foam inserts
can be made from one solid piece of foam. Rather than laminate
multiple sheets of foam together. RGH can mill foams to different
depths giving you an extremely accurate and solid packing case. This
capability also significantly reduces production times .
The service that is provided not only helps to securely protect your
products but also helps to present them in a professional and
stylish manner.
Prototype parts can be built prior to production to ensure that you
are totally satisfied with your product. |
And
Finally |
RGH also understand
that the demands on businesses are getting tougher and tougher and
customers often require products extremely quickly. RGH have
therefore invested heavily to try and ensure that we can meet the
shortest of lead times.
Our overriding consideration at all times is to devise a solution of
the highest quality which performs outstandingly and is delivered to
you on time; all within an effective cost structure. |
