Product Overview
BISCO® 7304 – Medium Closed-Cell Silicone Sponge
Product Overview
BISCO 7304 is a medium-density, closed-cell silicone sponge formulated for robust sealing and gasketing in dynamic environments. It provides a balance between compressibility and mechanical strength, making it a reliable choice for long-term sealing applications.
Applications
Ideal for lighting systems, transportation enclosures, and HVAC equipment where repeated compression and expansion cycles occur under environmental stress.
Performance Advantages
7304 retains elasticity under load, resists UV, ozone, and temperature extremes, and maintains its seal after thousands of compression cycles. It is flame-rated UL 94 V-0 and HF-1 and compliant with FMVSS 302.
Key Properties
Density ≈ 25 lb/ft³; compression deflection ≈ 10 psi; compression set < 5 %; operating range –67 °F to +392 °F; flame rating UL 94 V-0/HF-1; ozone and UV resistant.
