Saint-Gobain® Norseal® Silicone Rubber Press Pads are available to meet the full range of lamination requirements in today's multiple or high-temperature resin systems, including both low- and high-pressure lamination in hydraulic and vacuum-assisted hydraulic presses as well as autoclave operations.
In order to conform to the highest traces and multiwire, this rubber-over-fabric product line is offered in a range of thicknesses.
Saint-Gobain brings decades of experience with PTFE and thermoplastic bonding films to this product line.
Our knowledge of this technology enables us to produce Norseal press pads that provide substantial cycle life without silicone reversion.
Features:
• Unsurpassed cycle life
• Equal pressure over laminate surface
• Consistent thermal lagging from cycle to cycle
• Reduced inventory by eliminating paper
• Reduce labor cost of paper handling and disposal
• Reversion-resistant compounds handle high temperature and pressure
• Static-free compound keeps laminate clean
• Helps prevent voids in finished laminate
Applications:
• Flexible circuit boards
• Printed circuit boards
