What are foam rubber strips
Foam rubber strips are flexible strip-shaped products manufactured from cellular rubber materials with a closed or semi-closed structure. The material is characterised by its compressibility and ability to recover after deformation, which makes foam strips suitable for sealing and cushioning purposes. Foam rubber strips are commonly used where a soft, adaptable material is required to fill gaps or absorb tolerances.
When to use foam rubber strips
Foam rubber strips are used in applications where compression sealing, vibration damping or gap filling is required. The material is suitable for situations where surfaces are uneven or where movement occurs between components. Foam strips are typically applied in controlled environments where the material is not exposed to extreme mechanical loads or aggressive substances.
Applications of foam rubber strips
Foam rubber strips are typically applied in technical and industrial environments where flexibility and compressibility are important. The table below outlines common application contexts in which foam strips are used as functional sealing or cushioning elements.
| Industry | Typical application context |
|---|---|
| Industrial equipment | Foam strips used for sealing panels, covers or access points |
| Manufacturing | Compressible rubber strips applied to absorb tolerances or vibration |
| Technical installations | Foam rubber used to fill gaps or prevent dust and air ingress |
| General industry | Flexible strip material used for cushioning or separation purposes |
