HT-820 is an extra-firm grade silicone foam that offers improved durability and sealing. It is used to seal and protect various outdoor communication, lighting, and electronic enclosures from small dust particles, wind driven rain, and fire. It offers a higher tear and tensile strength than our lighter grade foams. Silicones are available in various thicknesses and manufactured in roll form to allow fabricators to easily convert the material to the proper dimensions.

Extra Firm Cellular Silicone HT-840
HT-840 is an extra-firm grade silicone foam that offers improved durability and sealing. It is used to seal and protect various outdoor communication, lighting, and electronic enclosures from small dust particles, wind driven rain, and fire. It offers a higher tear and tensile strength than our lighter grade foams. Silicones are available in various
thicknesses and manufactured in roll form to allow fabricators to easily convert the material to the proper dimensions.
Features and Benefits
Good memory and low stress relaxation reduces maintenance costs associated with gasket failures due to compression set and softening.
Resistance to ultraviolet light, ozone, extreme temperatures, and flame enables consistent performance in all environments.
Compact cell structure provides improved sealing performance.
Available through distribution sites throughout North America, Europe, and Asia.
Applications
Environmental seals to protect against penetration of dust, moisture, air, or light within outdoor enclosures such as lighting fixtures, HVAC units, and electronic cabinets.
Enclosures requiring a more durable, high closure force gasket.
Press pads requiring greater conformability and even pressure distribution at high temperatures.
Installation
Available with a pressure-sensitive adhesive on one or two sides to allow easy application to a variety of surfaces.
