Extrusion<\/h2>\n

Silicone extrusion is a manufacturing process used to create continuous lengths of silicone rubber profiles with a consistent cross-sectional shape. During extrusion, uncured silicone compound is pushed through a die (a specialised tool that shapes the material) and then cured (usually with heat) to set its final form.<\/p>\n

This method is ideal for producing flexible, durable components such as tubing<\/a>, seals, gaskets, cords<\/a> and weatherstrips. Because silicone can withstand extreme temperatures<\/a>, UV exposure and chemical<\/a> cleaning agents, extruded silicone products are widely used across industries including food and beverage<\/a>, medical<\/a>, automotive and construction.<\/p>\n

At Silclear, we can produce standard silicone extrusion profiles or work with you to develop custom silicone extrusions tailored to your unique application, with a wide range of sizes, colours, hardnesses and grades available.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

Compression Moulding<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>

Silclear is equipped to handle low-to-medium volume silicone moulding projects using efficient compression moulding techniques. This process involves placing uncured silicone into a heated mould cavity where it is compressed into shape.<\/p>\n
