Auburn Manufacturing Co. PDF HT-820 Firm Silicone Foam

Auburn Manufacturing Co. PDF HT-820 Firm Silicone Foam is a firm grade silicone foam that offers improved durability and sealing. It is used to seal or protect various outdoor communication, lighting or electronic enclosures, while providing protection against small dust particles, winddriven rain or fire. The material offers higher tear and tensile strength than lighter grade foams. Auburn silicone foams are available in various thicknesses and manufactured in roll form which can be easily converted into tapes, sheets or custom die cut gaskets.

Features & Benefits

Features & Benefits

Features and Benefits

  • Excellent memory and low stress relaxation reduces maintenance costs associated with gasket failures due to compression set and softening.
  • Resistance to ultraviolet light, ozone, extreme temperatures and flame enables Auburn silicone foams to perform consistently in all environments.
  • Compact cell structure and unique formulation provides enhanced sealing performance with resistance to penetration of fine particles or winddriven rain.
  • Available in roll goods, slit tapes or custom die cut parts. All Auburn silicone foams are available either plain or with an adhesive backing applied to one or both surfaces.
