Typical Properties of Style AG1300-S Soft Density Open Cell Silicone Foam

Description: Style AG1300-S is a soft density open cell silicone foam designed to be used in gasketing applications that require a lightweight and easy to compress material. Soft density open cell silicone foam provides excellent UV and ozone resistance and takes a low compression set. Style AG1300-S offers resistance to extreme low and high temperature and has a service temperature of -67°F to +392°F, with the ability to withstand +482°F on an intermittent basis. Soft density open sell silicone foam is a non-toxic, non-flammable material, and due to being lightweight, has virtually no outgassing. Soft density open cell silicone foam is formulated to meet the requirements of FDA regulation CFR 117.2600 and is also listed under UL 94 V-0 and UL 94 HF-1. Upon request, soft density open cell silicone foam can be manufactured to meet the BMS 1-68 specification.

Atlantic Gasket’s open cell silicone foam gasketing material is available in soft density (AG1300-S) and in a soft/medium density (AG1300-SM). Soft density open cell silicone foam can be converted into rolls ranging from as narrow as 1/4" wide, up to 36" in width. Available in white, the material has a smooth skin on both sides and can be manufactured in a wide range of standard and custom thicknesses. Atlantic Gasket has the capability to supply Style AG1300-S without adhesive or choose from either our standard acrylic adhesive or our high temperature acrylic adhesive. Send in a drawing, and let Atlantic Gasket die-cut or waterjet cut soft density open cell silicone foam to meet your exact prototype and production requirements.
