Adpol can mould and extrude in a grade of thermally conductive Silicone rubber which offers performance approaching copper loaded silicones, but at a fraction of the price.
Our 60 Shore A grade of thermally conductive Silicone rubber offers a thermal conductivity value of up to 1.13W/(mk) compared to standard Silicone 0.24. We have successfully extruded small profiles and tubing in this compound and would be happy to look at your custom projects in this grade.
We will also be able to cut and join thermally conductive Silicone rubber profiles and tube in this compound into O Ring or Letter Box gaskets.
This compound can be extruded into P tapes, D Profiles, e profiles and adhesive backed if required.
Traditionally metal loaded compounds have been the best solution when looking for thermally conductive polymers. But these can be very expensive and restrictive in terms of the hardness’s available, thermally conductive Silicone rubber offers a fresh approach to this area.
Please don’t hesitate to get in touch for quotations or technical advice if you think there is a new or existing project we can help you with.
