Monprene® TPE for Industrial

Monprene® thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) excel in harsh environments. They maintain elasticity even at sub-zero temperatures, making them ideal for sealing applications in various fluid management systems, like gaskets in automatic sprinklers and HVAC systems.

Unleash the Potential of Your Designs:

Tailored Performance: We customize formulations to meet your specific needs, from improved abrasion resistance to enhanced UV stability.

Cost Optimization: Choose from filled or unfilled options to achieve the perfect balance of performance and budget.

Design Freedom: Achieve a wide range of colors, including pre-colored options, to match your specific requirements. Low durometer grades available.

Streamlined Processing: No pre-drying necessary, saving you time and energy.

Applications

Seals and Gaskets

Seals and gaskets serve as junctions between two surfaces, serving to prevent the passage of fluids or protect the mating parts. Extremely resistant to flex fatigue, Sarlink® TPVs are used to produce high-performance long-term seals exposed to harsh temperatures and chemicals. For sealing applications in less severe environments, where a better balance of price and performance is sought, Monprene® TPEs provide an excellent alternative. Monprene® TPEs provide a smooth surface appearance, are UV and ozone resistant, and unlike TPVs, do not require pre-drying. Monprene® TPEs are available in very low hardnesses and are used to produce the soft fin on multi-durometer seals.
