Other foams
We supply urethane, PVDF, polyethylene and polyimide foams. The urethane foams have low compression set and excellent sealing properties. The polyethylene, PVDF and polyimide foams offer fire retardant insulation solutions at different temperatures. The PVDF and polyethylene foams can also be used as seals.
The materials are available as tapes and gaskets with or without pressure sensitive adhesive and the adhesive can be applied to one or both sides.
Polyimide, PVDF30 and LDPE15 meet FAR 25-856a.
