BISCO BF-2000 Ultra Soft Silicone Foam
BISCO BF-2000 Ultra Soft flame retardant Silicone Foam offers the perfect balance of low weight and softness for transportation, industrial and electronics applications.
BISCO BF-2000 Ultra Soft is a highly compressible silicone Foam with the right combination of low weight and softness for applications requiring low closure force and dust sealing.
BF-2000 silicone's ultra-low softness allows designers to use less force to seal enclosures while still protecting devices from the environment.
This material is ideal for vibration isolation in electronic components and transportation vehicles.
BF-2000 foam is also ideal for low-closure force gaskets within portable electronics such as laptops and LCD screens within aircraft and rail interiors.
