The Right Solution
Arlon retains its industry leadership position by focusing solely on providing the highest quality silicone compounds, substrates, and laminates. We custom compound silicone gums to meet unique requirements including handling and performance characteristics.
We choose from a wide variety of rubbers, catalysts, mineral fillers, reinforcing components, and polymer additives for each application. We have an extensive array of compounds including fluorosilicones, ZZ-R-765 compliance, Shore A durometers from 30 to 80, as well as formulations suitable for food contact.
Supporting substrate fabrics are selected for the specific application requirements for tensile strength, flexibility, thickness, weave, and chemical and heat resistance. Arlon currently offers products on more than a dozen fiberglass fabrics, polyester, Nomex®, Kevlar®, and even woven graphite. Each of these is offered with a broad range of cure profiles. Precise silicone color matching is also available to enhance product appearance and function.
Arlon also provides the broadest variety of standard construction options available in the industry today. We can create unique constructions that best optimize performance and cost for your application. We have developed a unique capability of bonding technology for our calendered silicone products in order to meet demanding performance standards. We offer silicone bonded to stainless steel and Alloy 600 foils. Our primerless technology products eliminate the need to prime before bonding to a substrate.
