Liquid Silicone Rubber Injection Molding

Liquid silicone rubber injection molding is the most recent addition to Jefferson Rubber Works, Inc.’s molding operations. The faster cycle times and improved performance properties of liquid silicone rubber make it a good choice for a variety of molded components. Liquid silicone rubber (LSR) remains flexible and elastic beyond -70°F and retains its properties up to 450°F which makes liquid silicone rubber a good candidate for gaskets, seals, boots, bellows, medical devices and other applications where outdoor conditions are demanding. Cured liquid silicone rubber does not out-gas volatiles and plasticizers as other rubber compounds do – which has made it friendly to various assemblies that were formerly required to be ‘silicone free’.
