Silicone Coated Fabric
Silicone Rubber
Coated Fiberglass
Fabric
Taconic silicone rubber coated fiberglass fabric provides a tough, flexible, abrasion-resistant surface for demanding industrial processing applications requiring grip, durability, and elastomeric performance.
Unlike PTFE coated fabrics, silicone coated fiberglass fabric can provide enhanced flexibility, surface traction, abrasion resistance, and high-flex performance while still supporting release and chemical resistance requirements.
Silicone rubber coated fabric is commonly used for conveying, flexible release surfaces, industrial curtains, fabricated covers, and applications where flex life and surface durability are important.

Fabric FAQ
Common questions about
silicone coated fabric.
What is silicone rubber coated fiberglass fabric used for?
Silicone rubber coated fiberglass fabric is used for flexible release surfaces, conveying, packaging, industrial curtains, covers, and applications requiring grip and abrasion resistance.
How is silicone coated fabric different from PTFE coated fabric?
Silicone coated fabric offers a flexible elastomeric surface with grip and abrasion resistance, while PTFE coated fabric is typically chosen for low friction and non-stick release.
Are silicone coated fabrics suitable for food contact?
Taconic silicone rubber fabrics are not suitable for direct food contact. Please see Taconic Liquid Silicone Rubber Coated Fabrics for food grade application requirements.
Need help selecting a fabric?
Taconic can help match thickness, surface grip, release performance, FDA compliance, tensile strength, coating type, and flex requirements to your application.
