What Makes The Silicone Sealed Plug Work?

In recent years, green environmental protection has become the main theme of the development of the automotive industry. At the end of 2016, the Ministry of Environmental Protection officially released the “Light Vehicle Pollutant Emission Limits and Measurement Methods (China's Sixth Phase)”, requiring that from July 1, 2020, all light vehicles sold and registered should meet the new standards Emission requirements, the market demand for low-VOC products is increasing. In addition, the design of motor vehicles is becoming increasingly lightweight, showing a more compact assembly space, non-metallic materials and finer processing requirements (the width of the flange surface is narrower).

The process of digitization, intelligence, and networking of automobiles has promoted the prosperity of automotive electronic products, while also placing more stringent requirements on the choice of materials. Motor vehicles need to be equipped with more wiring harnesses and sensors, and extreme environments in the car such as vibration and heat will also bring a new test to the service life of electronic products. In addition, consumers pay more attention to the comfort and safety of driving and riding. Humanized design such as vibration reduction and noise reduction, anti-fatigue and jacket design, intelligent car lights are being considered more and more.

These automobile development trends have brought higher requirements for the design and production of automotive parts.

Silicone material has the characteristics of softness, abrasion resistance, expansion and contraction, high temperature resistance, low temperature and so on after vulcanization. Therefore, silicone products have a wide range of applications in industry and daily life. During the application process, we will encounter various problems. The problem is that in the process of product design, the failure to understand the characteristics, elongation and compression rate of silicone rubber, the hardness of silicone rubber, etc., leads to the inability to grasp the size of the silicone seals. Some experience in product production for many years, I would like to encourage everyone.

Silicone Single Wire Seal

Many people may think that it is because the seal is made of silicone material that it will play the role of sealing. In fact, this is not entirely true. It is the silicone single wire seal that really seals it. Performance.

Let's take a look at its performance, and we know that, in general, its performance includes: stretch, pressure resistance, wear resistance, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, elasticity, non-deformation and other properties; and because of these The performance allows the silicone material to be widely used in the application production of seals, and allows other silicone products to have full play.

Perhaps this is a one-sided statement, then you can imagine that in some machinery or equipment that needs to be sealed, the first thing to do is to press the silicone sealed plug, and then squeeze it into the machine to make it fuse with the machine. It can isolate the internal and external air, so it can be fully applied whether it is waterproof or anti-airflow. This is not to be ignored, and it is easy for everyone to see.

Only the comprehensive properties of silicone can achieve the sealing effect. This is the application feature of the connector cavity plug. It has always been one of the products that other materials cannot replace.
