Silicone Iron Pad for FPC Quick Press

Silicone Iron Pad: Uniform Heating and Structural Reinforcement for Quick Press Processes

Silicone Iron Pad is a composite of high-quality silicone bonded to a rigid steel plate, designed specifically for quick press (FPC hot press) machines. It offers excellent flatness and thermal buffering, significantly improving forming results and fill bonding. The steel base keeps the whole structure rigid and durable, making it a core consumable in high-pressure lamination processes.

Why Choose Lixing Composite Materials Silicone Iron Pad?

Stable Structure, No Deformation: The 1.0mm steel base provides strong support and maintains excellent flatness under high pressure.
Excellent Forming and Fill: The 2.0mm high-performance silicone layer offers outstanding cushioning and gap filling, ensuring bubble-free layers in FPC lamination.
High Compatibility: Widely compatible with mainstream quick press models such as Beyond BAK-80T, BAK-120T and BAK-150T.
Extended Service Life: 8,000 to 10,000 cycles under normal operation, greatly reducing downtime for replacement.
