Neoprene Foam Parts
What is Neoprene Foam?
Neoprene is a type of foam that does not break down in the sun, wind, or water. It’s physically tough, resistant to burning, can withstand both hot and cold temperatures, and remains unaffected by contact with many oils and chemicals. Commonly known as chloroprene, it hardens and creates a still-air and watertight seal when under compression.
Neoprene Applications
Whether exploring ocean depths, pushing athletic performance to new levels, or discovering new lands, it’s vital for equipment to function in extreme conditions. Improve your application with high-performance neoprene foam parts from Foamcraft USA. Neoprene is ideal for a variety of applications across home goods, sports and outdoors, automobile, industrial, manufacturing, and aviation sectors. Common uses include:
- gaskets
- life jackets
- sealing tapes
- wetsuits
- weather stripping
- fly-fishing waders
- hoses
- laptop and tablet sleeves
- knee and elbow pads
- electrical insulation
- and many other uses
Neoprene is manufactured using a mold, which produces foam buns. The chosen mixture of foaming additives and catalysts determines its density, hardness, color, and resilience properties. Buns are then cut into sheets of a specified thickness or fabricated into the desired shape, piece, or block using a die, compression, or contour cutting methods.
A versatile and resilient product, neoprene is available in a variety of grades to enhance performance. Let us know your objectives and requirements, and our expert team will help identify, engineer, and fabricate the best neoprene foam parts to meet your needs.
