Sponge Gaskets By Silton Rubber Industries

We are a widely admired manufacturer and exporter of a vast array
of Sponge Gaskets to our highly honored customers. The offered
gaskets are commonly utilized to fill the space between two or more
extremely irregular mating surface, normally to inhibit leakage from
or into the connected objects while under compression. The offered
gaskets come in 500 different forms to cater different needs of the
clients. We also provide customized solution for these Sponge Gaskets
as per customers' given sizes and technical specifications.

Sponge rubber, also called "expanded" or "cellular"
rubber, is manufactured by including a gas-forming ingredient
(blowing agent) in the rubber formulation. As the rubber vulcanises,
it reaches a temperature at which the blowing agent decomposes and
gas bubbles form, creating individual cell structures in the rubber.
This is followed by a curing until vulcanization is complete. The
vulcanization process preserves the cell structure formed by the gas
in the interior of the component. This makes the final gasket softer,
easier to compress and lighter in weight. Hence sponge gaskets
require much lesser force to compress as compared to solid rubber
gaskets.
