Processing example of square silicone sponge gaskets.
Supports high-precision hole processing with a water jet.
■Overview of Processing Example Product Name: Square Gasket Made of Silicone Sponge / Dimensions: 204□×29.5×14W Groove Edge, Thickness 5t, φ7 Holes × 8 Locations / This processing example features a square gasket made from silicone sponge SSR930N. It was manufactured for applications requiring stable sealing performance over a wide temperature range. The water jet processing has achieved high precision for the 8 bolt holes, despite the material being sponge. ■Product Features Silicone sponge is a material made by foaming silicone rubber, offering excellent heat resistance (up to 200°C) and cold resistance (down to -50°C). Its independent bubble structure provides outstanding sealing and thermal insulation properties, making it lightweight and highly flexible, widely used as packing and insulation material for equipment. It also exhibits excellent weather resistance and ozone resistance, maintaining stable performance even in outdoor environments.
basic information
■Processing Method Water jet cutting is a water pressure cutting machine that uses high-pressure water to cut materials. It processes by spraying high-pressure water. By changing the injection nozzle according to the processing material, high-quality products can be produced in a short time. Additionally, the dimensional tolerances that were significantly affected by traditional manual processing are greatly improved, resulting in stable processing accuracy. The taper of the cut surface from press processing can also be improved with water jet processing. ■Q&A Q: What is the temperature range for using silicone sponge? A: It can be used over a wide range of approximately -50℃ to 200℃. Q: Why did you choose water jet processing? A: To suppress deformation of the sponge material and ensure accuracy of hole positioning. Q: Is it possible to produce in small lots? A: We can accommodate from one piece. Please consult us for prototypes and custom products.
