Delphi Gum Based Silicone Rubber Sealing Components
Delphi Gum Based Silicone Rubber Sealing Components are an
extension of Delphi's product offerings beyond the standard liquid
silicone rubber (LSR) technology currently being used. The wide
array of Delphi Gum Based Silicone Rubber Sealing Components
includes block seals, grommets, cable seals, housings, and more.
Delphi's expertise with advanced sealing materials and
manufacturing machines includes using a gum based silicone
rubber material process. The components are manufactured with
unique processing methods, developed in Delphi's Wuppertal,
Germany manufacturing facility.
Offering a high cut resistance and eliminating the need for manual
vision control, gum based silicone rubber components are an
expansion of Delphi's current sealing choices, enabling increased
quality and cost savings. This technology also supports the
development for advanced products with a mechanical pierce in the
subsequent processing, including Delphi's small gage cable sealing
system and flexible printed circuit (FPC) sealing technology.
