Industrial Roller
Solutions

Temperature and chemical resistance. Excellent adhesion.

Fabricate industrial rollers with temperature and chemical resistance, excellent adhesion and resilience. Use Silastic silicone high consistency rubber (HCR) for industrial rollers.


Manufacture dependable industrial rollers for challenging industrial applications

You can fabricate embossing, laminating, and printing rollers, including those for thermally conductive applications, that:

  • Maintain their flexibility at a wide range of temperatures
  • Require resistance to chemicals

SILASTIC® brand silicone high-consistency rubber (HCR) are ideal for industrial roller applications, including laminating and stretch pinch, featuring:

  • Excellent resilience
  • Low compression set
  • Good release (low tack)
  • Strong adhesion to metals such as steel, aluminum, chrome plating, and nickel plating can be achieved, enabling use in equipment designed for challenging industrial applications

Gain manufacturing flexibility
Whether you are mass producing products or crafting custom rollers for specialty applications, your industrial rollers can be coated with proven Silastic HCR elastomers.

  • Achieve cost-effective high-volume production using extrusion coating
  • Offer hand-crafted specialized parts via calendering
