Frequently Asked Questions About Flame Retardant Silicone Sponge & Foam
Flame retardant silicone sponge is a silicone material formulated with additives that improve resistance to ignition and combustion. These materials are commonly used in applications where fire resistant silicone sponge performance is required.
Silicone sponge offers excellent heat and flame resistance compared to many other rubber materials. However, with enough heat exposure, all rubber products can eventually combust.
Stigall offers several products with enhanced flame resistance, including SP102-VO Gray Silicone Sponge (UL 94 V-0 rated), SP255 Blue Gray Silicone Sponge, and National Silicone Liquid Foam Series products, like the popular NS-120 Medium Density
Flame resistant silicone foam is commonly used for sealing, insulation, gasketing, and protective applications across industries such as aerospace, military, automotive, manufacturing, and electronics.
Contact Stigall to discuss your application needs and learn more about available flame retardant silicone sponge and foam solutions.
UL 94 V-0 is a flammability classification from Underwriters Laboratories indicating that a material self-extinguishes within 10 seconds after flame exposure and does not drip flaming particles. It is the most stringent of the UL 94 vertical burn ratings. Stigall's SP102-VO silicone sponge is tested and approved to UL 94 V-0 requirements, making it suitable for applications where certified flame retardant performance is required.
