BISCO BF-2000 Ultra Soft is a highly compressible silicone foam with the right combination of low weight and softness for applications requiring low closure force and dust sealing. BF-2000 silicone's ultra low softness allows designers to use less force to seal enclosures while still protecting devices from the environment. This material is ideal for vibration isolation in electronic components and transportation vehicles. BF-2000 foam is also ideal for low closure force gaskets within portable electronics such as laptops and LCD screens within aircraft and rail interiors.

Features

  • Available in thicknesses from 0.125 to 0.500 in.
  • Typical density of 10 PCF
  • CFD range of 2.5 PSI max
  • Excellent memory and low stress relaxation
  • Resistant to UV, ozone, extreme temperatures and flame
  • Available with pressure-sensitive adhesive on one or two sides, allowing easy surface application

Benefits

  • Ultra-low softness allows protective seals that use less force
  • High compressibility enables material to conform to variable width gaps, allowing greater design flexibility
  • Reduces maintenance costs associated with gasket failures due to compression set and softening
