FLEXIBLE AUTO SOLUTIONS

Engineered rubber elastomers are ideal for durable sealing and gasketing, helping to increase the heat-resistance of all kinds of vehicle components. Their consistency is as flexible as their name suggests – ranging from high-consistency rubber (HCR) and fluorosilicone rubber (FSR) compounds, to liquid silicone rubber (LSR) and fluoro liquid silicone rubber (F-LSR) elastomers.

Silicone and fluorosilicone rubber elastomers can help increase:
Driving comfort by reducing noise, vibration and harshness (NVH)
Performance by eliminating heat shields to reduce mass
Safety by improving airbag and inflatable curtain performance
Reliability by remaining strong in heat, cold and harsh operating conditions

SEALING CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIPS

Dow Corning silicone and fluorosilicone adhesives and sealants may be a relatively small part of a vehicle, but they can bring big benefits when used for bonding, sealing and gasketing. Not only do they help prevent component failures and costly warranty repairs, but in doing so can improve customer satisfaction, too.

Adhesives and sealants can help increase:
Driving comfort by preventing squeaks and rattles and eliminating noise, vibration and    harshness (NVH)
Performance by providing strong component bonds and seals
Safety by improving system sealing and gasketing durability
Reliability by resisting heat, cold and harsh conditions in long-term service
