Fluorosilicone Foam
EMCO Industrial Plastics carries Fluorosilicone foam available in strip, sheet, roll, or custom gasket forms. Fluorosilicone is a combination of fluoroelastomer and silicone which results in an excellent material for fuels, chemicals, and oils with a broad temperature range. Fluorosilicone foam is often used in applications containing oil and fluids that would normally degrade standard elastomers. Available in open and closed cell styles, with pre-applied High Temperature Adhesive backing options, and a textured finish.
Our Fluorosilicone materials are available in thicknesses of 1/32” to 1/8”, including all standard iterations of inch and metric thickness measurements across this range. Continuous strips, rolls, and sheets are available in any width from 12” to 36”, and lengths up to 36”. In-house CNC gasket cutting, machining, and waterjet cutting capabilities promote tight tolerances, repeatable accuracy, and rapid part development across our entire Fluorosilicone offering.
