Elastomer vs. Foam
Elastomer vs. Foam
(OP)
Does anyone have information on why one would choose an elastomer over foam for an application, other than price? I have an application that I have been looking to use either a silicone or urethane foam-in-place gasket, but the thought of an elastomer hadn't really crossed my mind until recently. If I could find a cost effective elastomer that had the same hardness characteristics of a foam, would it be a feasible alternative?





RE: Elastomer vs. Foam
Is the final "material" created in a factory or by a person on the "construction" site.
"Made in factory" usually implies a lot more quality control than "on site" "mixing/spraying".

Any recommendations or experience ?
