Polyethylene Foam (30kg)
Polyethylene Foam (30kg)
Advanced Seals & Gaskets Ltd work with a multitude of reputable material manufacturers and suppliers, enabling us to offer a range of materials in many grades, densities and colours. One of the more popular materials includes various types of Polyethylene (PE) foam, one of which includes expanded closed cell cross-linked , 30kg polyethylene foam or ‘block foam’ as it is sometimes referred to.
30kg polyethylene foam is manufactured and stocked in block form from which we can convert sheets and rolls of various thicknesses. As we offer in-house conversion and lamination services, we can not only split materials down, we can also laminate layers together and apply self-adhesives or foil facings.
Our onsite facilities consist of a number of presses, log cutters, strippers, bandsaws and CNC machines from which we can produce a number of 30kg polyethylene foam products including gaskets, washers, strips, pads and fabrications.
What is Polyethylene (30kg) Foam?
Polyethylene Foam (30kg) is a cross-linked PE foam, which is part of the Thermoplastic foam family, which has a small, uniform, closed-cell structure. 30kg polyethylene foam is impermeable to liquid, gases and particles, creating an effective seal. The cross-linking process forms bonds between the polymer chains, creating the 3D structure and giving the material improved compression strength, compression set, thermal stability and tensile strength.
