Explore your many silicone rubber material options

With over 6000 proven SILASTIC® brand silicone elastomers, you can meet multiple needs for a wide range of industrial and consumer markets.

SILASTIC®  High Consistency Silicone Rubber (HCR) Compounds -- Ready-to-use, customized blends of silicone rubber base, fillers, modifiers, vulcanizing agents, and pigments, heat cured to form elastomeric components

SILASTIC® Fluorosilicone Rubber (FSR) Compounds -- High-consistency ready-to-use, customized blends of fluorosilicone rubber base, fillers, modifiers, vulcanizing agents, and pigments, heat cured to form elastomeric components.

SILASTIC® Liquid Silicone Rubbers (LSR) -- Two-part pumpable silicone materials that are mixed and rapidly heat-cured to form elastomeric components. Ideal for intricate designs manufactured in large, automated quantities, LSR can increase your processing efficiency.

  • Industrial and food contact formulations
  • Excellent processing performance
  • Fast cure rate
  • Reduced cycle times
  • Lower production costs
  • Processed by liquid injection molding

SILASTIC® Fluoro Liquid Silicone Rubbers (F-LSR) -- Fully fluorinated two-part pumpable silicone materials. F-LSR combines the performance of FSR with the processing benefits of an LSR.

Silicone Rubber Bases -- Standard, high consistency, non-customizable materials offered for sale over the Internet through Xiameter; an economical choice for those who are able to purchase materials in large, bulk quantities, do not require technical or sales support, and have no special shipping requirements.

Primers -- Dilute solutions of silane coupling agents and other active ingredients. To ensure optimal bonding of silicone rubbers, Dow Corning will test your substrate.

Additives -- To enhance processing and performance characteristics, such as viscosity, heat stability, and flame retardancy.
