Tear Resistant Pad Silicone Cuts Pad Changes on Housing Line Hongye Silicone

A remote control and appliance panel plant runs two shifts, printing over ten thousand parts a day. The regular pad silicone cracked after a couple of shifts, and peeling skin stuck to housings. Operators stopped the line to swap pads, losing capacity and print consistency.

Why the Pads Cracked

High frequency pressing and sharp part edges fatigue ordinary silicone. Softening the pad or trimming its shape only slowed the damage. The line needed a material that holds up through repeated daily cycles.

HY-912 Trial on the Line

Our team checked the part geometry and print frequency, then recommended HY-912. Tear strength 25 kN/m, the top condensation grade, tensile 4.0 MPa, 30 Shore A for flat and slightly curved housings. Trial pads were cast from 2 kg sample and run head to head.

Measured Outcome

Over two weeks the HY-912 pads stayed smooth without fine cracks or peeling. Pad life lengthened, mid run changes dropped, logo edges stayed sharp and defect numbers went down. The plant moved HY-912 into batch replenishment across the housing line.

Picking the Right Grade

High volume lines start from tear strength. Flat housings HY-912, arcs HY-902, deep grooves HY-916, precision food contact HY-933. Ready stock 1 kg MOQ, sample trial before bulk.
