Self-Adhesive Foam for Industrial Applications

Self-adhesive foam can protect and cushion components and, with a suitable design, seal joints. Suitability depends on the foam, adhesive layer, substrates and load. For edges, the catalogue includes a PE foam profile with an acrylic adhesive and an expressly described protective function. For a joint, its geometry and compression must also match the required sealing effect. Tell us about the component, substrate and intended function so that a suitable material can be assessed for your application.

The foam material, adhesive, thickness and required width or shape are key details. They are specific to each product: the current catalogue includes a self-adhesive PE edge protection profile with an acrylic adhesive, 5 mm thickness and 70 mm width. Those values describe that product only and do not apply to the whole range. Also check the substrate and conditions of use. If you need a cut part or die-cut piece, specify the component geometry and required delivery format.

Self-adhesive foam can be considered as sealing tape when its material, the joint size and compression suit the sealing task. Foams can be used for sealing and compensating for gaps, but this does not guarantee a particular sealing performance for every product. Depending on the application, EPDM or rubber may also be options. Describe what must be sealed, the substrates and the conditions affecting the joint. A specific product can only be selected once those requirements are known.

Yes. Krückemeyer GmbH cuts, die-cuts and applies adhesive layers to suitable foams for application-specific dimensions and shapes. Feasibility depends on the material and geometry. For an enquiry, provide a drawing or dimensions, the required shape, substrate information and the intended processing method. This allows us to assess whether roll material, a cut part or a die-cut piece suits your process. Converting alone does not create a particular technical property in the material.
