Automotive Gaskets & Gap Filling
From bumper to bumper and roof to underside, automotive and mass transit interiors and exteriors present a variety of sealing challenges. Gaskets and gap fillers are needed to protect sensitive electronics and seal out air, water, dust, light, and electromagnetic interference (EMI). Rogers high performance foams – PORON® Cellular Urethanes and BISCO® Cellular Silicones – provide solutions for door panels, instrument panels, HVAC systems, engine compartments, fuel systems, and more.
High Temperature, High Pressure Seals
Seals and heat shields must be resistance to temperature extremes. BISCO® Solid Silicone foam materials are designed for high temperature/high pressure gasketing applications. They are available in a variety of thicknesses and durometers. Grades are also available with fiberglass reinforcement for added dimensional stability and increased tear strength.
Automotive Standards
Rogers Corp. has kept pace as industry standards expand to meet safety requirements, giving design engineers unparalleled design latitude. The company’s specialty materials meet or exceed automotive specifications for flame resistance (FMVSS302), fogging (SAE-J 1756), Ford WSS-M2D496, GM6098M, DCS MS-AY549, and Delphi MS006462.
PORON® Microcellular Urethanes are low-outgassing, non-fogging foam materials. They contain no plasticizers or residual chemicals to contaminate devices. The material will not become brittle and crumble, and is non-corrosive to metal.
