PORON® AquaPro® – High-performance sealing solutions for demanding applications
Why PORON® AquaPro®?
The PORON® AquaPro®family from Rogers is specially designed for applications that permanent water protection, height mechanical resistance and Process safety These compression and tensile elastomers combine:
- Excellent water resistance, even with minimal contact pressure
- Resistance to compression set and compression reduction
- Temperature suitability from –40 °C to 90 °C constantly and up to 120 °C briefly
- Flame retardancy according to UL94 HBF and FMVSS 302 standards
- Low outgassingto avoid contaminating sensitive electronics
product variants at a glance
| Type | Softness | Recommended usage |
| AquaPro® 4701‑37 | Very soft | Ideal for thin gaskets with high water and dust resistance (up to 0,15 mm) |
| AquaPro® 4701‑41 | Soft, dense | For applications with vacuum tightness or low clamping force |
Both versions are available in 0,15 – 12,7 mm thickness, easy to punch, laminable or available in customer-specific formats
Perfect areas of application
Waterproof and dustproof housing
use in Outdoor enclosures, automotive lighting or shock absorber systems – ideal for IP67/68 environments.
Sealing of battery connectors
In electric vehicles, AquaPro® reliably ensures the service life of charging sockets. The sealing protection remains intact even after temperature fluctuations.
Compression-resistant strips between modules
Precise sealing in narrow gaps of electronic battery module packages with reliable springback behavior.
This is how you specifically benefit:
- Long-term shape retention: reliable even after thousands of pressure cycles due to low compression deformation
- Versatile processing: punch, glue or assemble as prefabricated strips without tools
- High stability: works reliably at –40 °C to +90 °C constant use, up to 120 °C even for short periods
- Standard safe: flame-retardant according to UL94 HBF, FMVSS302 – for automotive, industry and electronics
Application tips and recommendations
- Choose thickness – 0,15–12,7 mm depending on the application or pressure profile
- Check compression – 25% CFD (Compression Force Deflection) is a guideline for stable sealing
- Add adhesive layer – with selective acrylate or silicone adhesives for additional adhesion
- Pay attention to certifications – Consider UL, FMVSS and OEM specifications
