Product Description
Glass cloth undergoes a specialised treatment wherein it is coated with a robust, heavyweight silicone rubber known as Supersil. This silicone rubber is uniquely formulated with a high concentration of iron oxide, lending it a distinctive red colour. The presence of iron oxide is crucial as it serves two significant purposes: it enhances the silicone’s temperature tolerance and enables the material to withstand brief exposure with molten metal.
We provide Supersil coated glass cloth in different supply options, such as cut-to-size pieces, rolls, or customised manufacturing tailored to your specific requirements. Supersil silicone can be added in different coating weights and applied to all weights and weave styles of glass cloth.
