Oriented Wire in Silicone - Sheet sizes and available thicknesses |
| Kemtron is able to offer a wide variety of options for this material by virtue of the fact that the material is cut from large blocks in house using our high speed slicer. This allows us to offer not just the industry standard thicknesses that have been available for many years, but custom thicknesses (subject to type of material) to suit the customers exact design requirement. |

| A standard range of widths are available, these are: 3.2mm, 4.8mm, 6.4mm, 9.5mm, 12.7mm, 15.9mm & 19.1mm. To order strips use the material type number followed by the thickness and width (Expressed as 4 digits to one decimal place) Add SAB to the end of the part number if you require self-adhesive backing. Custom widths and thicknesses are available on request subject to the limitations given in Tables 1 & 2 above. | |
| Examples: 1.6mm thick Monel wires in silicone sponge, width 12.7mm - Part number 430-0016-0127 0.8mm thick Aluminium wires in solid silicone, width 3.2mm with self-adhesive backing - Part number 420-0008-0032SAB | |
