Silicone rubber is a very important component of the automotive industry. Its advantages include low and high temp resistance, self-extinguishing and fire resistance properties, and overall reflex flexibility.
Silicone rubbers are high-performance polymers that exhibit properties of both inorganic and organic compounds.
Silicones have a huge number of characteristics including heat resistance, cold resistance, weather ability, water repellency, deforming properties, adhesiveness, reliability and dielectric properties.
Silicone rubber products are used in numerous ways to get better safety and consistency and to make automobiles smaller, lighter and more eco-friendly. Silicones are critical to the progress of automotive technology, and manufacturers are taking observation.

Elements of Silicone Rubber
Here are some of the major elements where silicone rubber plays a very important role
Hoses
As a leading manufacturer of silicone rubber gaskets and hoses for automotive hoses Elastostar understands the extrusion tolerances needed for oil, heat and ozone. Our compounds also offer toughness for long-term life application.
Fuel cell gaskets
Along with the anticipation of out-gassing and deprivation, a reliable thickness of the gasket is necessary for fuel cells.
Headlight seals
The material must be UV resistant with a high-density set to make sure moisture cannot enter the headlight. We are skilled in providing superior seals to moderate the risk of collapse.
Brakes
The substance for these safety-critical parts requires extraordinary thought to withstand extreme temperatures as well as frictional heat from the braking procedure. Hoses, cups and boots all demand silicone rubbers.
Fuel seals
Aggressive engine environments and tight release regulations require the best quality rubber. With Elastostar you can create fuel system seals, diaphragms and gaskets which deliver great performance.
Elastostar Rubber Corporation is recognized for manufacturing high-quality FDA, USP CL-VI, Platinum cured, NSF-51 and 3-A sanitary-approved custom silicone rubber gaskets, extrusion, seals, and custom silicone O-ring products. Our company’s reputation for excellence has been built on our ability to provide the most effective designing, engineering and industrial solutions to meet our customer’s most demanding applications.
