Silicone Encapsulants
Use encapsulating silicone formulas from Silmid to protect aircraft components from various physical and environmental factors. We have bulk discount pricing on silicone encapsulants from CHT, Momentive, Loctite, Dow, and other respected brands. Moreover, our ability to process small-volume orders and serve markets like aircraft-on-ground and military has made us a leading distributor of industrial silicone products.
What Are Silicone Encapsulants?
This subset of silicone compounds is primarily used to encase electronic components such as circuit boards and sensors. These delicate parts need protection from dust, water, chemicals, and other hazards. Silicone provides this while being softer and more flexible than epoxy over a wide temperature range, giving it better shock, vibration, and impact absorption.
Silicone encapsulants offer many other industrial uses, including thermal transfer and light emission management. Its ability to cure in deep sections or fully harden when applied in layers over one centimetre thick, offers maximum performance and protection.
Electronic Encapsulation for Aircraft and More
Our online catalogue has silicone encapsulant compounds and gels available to order 24/7. Browse an assortment of two-part silicone elastomer systems such as optically clear silicone, primerless encapsulant, dielectric flame-resistant silicone gel, and thermally conductive silicon. Options are available for room temperature, fridge, or freezer storage depending on the curing agent. Choose from a variety of colours to mark certain components or improve visibility.
