Buttons of Silicone Rubber Keypad
There are generally six types of silicone rubber keypad shapes: Double cone, double bell, flat bell, flat cone, single cone, single bell. The difference lies in the stroke, load and range of use.
Double cone: Force between 30-90g is one of the smallest load ranges among all products. Stroke range 2.0-4.0mm. The service life is up to 2,000,000 times. Commonly used equipment: Computer or typewriter, etc.
Flat bell: The load of 20-80g can be the smallest and the life span is the longest. Respectively 20-80g, the life span is 30,000,000 times. The most commonly used industries are telephones, mobile control equipment, automation equipment, and agricultural equipment.
Single cone: Force is generally between 30-250g, and stroke range is between 0.7-2.0mm. The most commonly used equipment is telephone, or testing equipment, automation equipment, navigation equipment and so on. The service life can be up to 2,000,000 times.
Single bell: Force is generally between 30-200g, and stroke range is between 1.0-3.0mm. The most commonly used devices are telephones, mobile devices, or test equipment. The service life can be up to 5,000,000 times.
Double bell: Force is generally between 30-250g, and stroke range is between 1.0-2.5mm. The most commonly used equipment is telephone, or test equipment. The service life can be up to 2,000,000 times.
Flat cone: It is a conventional button type, the force is generally 30-350g, and the stroke range is between 0.5-3mm. The most commonly used industries are telephones, mobile control equipment, automation equipment, etc. The service life can be as high as 200,000 times.
Physical Properties of Silicone Button
Low thermal conductivity: The thermal conductivity of silicone buttons and other materials is their ability to conduct heat. So, a material with high thermal conductivity has excellent heat transfer capabilities. However, in the case of silicone buttons, they have poor heat transfer properties, making them good insulators against temperature changes.
Excellent resistance to extreme temperatures: Silicone buttons can withstand high and low temperatures without losing their properties. This is because they are thermally stable, so their properties or physical integrity do not easily change, no matter the temperature of your environment.
Flexible and elastic: A silicone push button is highly flexible and can stretch and bend without breaking or cracking, which is valuable in many industrial and medical applications.
Low electrical conductivity: Since they are good insulators, they do not allow electric current to pass through them, hence their low electrical conductivity. This property makes them safe to support and separate electrical conductors in your device.
Chemically inert: Being inert means that they are chemically nonreactive. For this reason, silicone buttons are resistant to many chemicals. Even when silicone rubber buttons face attack by chemical compounds, it’s usually hydrofluoric acid(in long-term exposure), concentrated sulphuric acid, and high-pressure steam.
Non-toxic: Their base material, silicone, is hypoallergenic, meaning that silicone buttons are unlikely to cause an allergic reaction. In addition, they are non-toxic, making them safe for use in medical and food-grade applications.
UV and ozone resistance: While mostly used indoors, their application extends to outdoor settings. You don’t have to worry about losing their physical properties or functionalities due to prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (uv) light and ozone because they are manufactured to withstand those.
Non-stick: If you’re concerned about the maintenance and cleaning of silicone buttons, you have nothing to worry about. Silicone buttons have a low surface energy, making them non-stick and easy to release from molds or surfaces.
Application of Silicone Button
Remote controls: Silicone keypads are used in remote controls for their ease of use and long-lasting performance.
Medical devices: Silicone keypads are used in medical devices, such as blood glucose monitors and insulin pumps, due to their resistance to chemicals and ability to withstand repetitive use.
Industrial equipment: Silicone keypads are commonly used in industrial equipment due to their resistance to harsh environments, such as extreme temperatures and chemicals.
Automotive industry: Silicone keypads are used in the automotive industry to control the various features of a vehicle, such as the radio, air conditioning, and dashboard controls.
Home appliances: Silicone keypads are used in home appliances, such as ovens, washing machines, and dishwashers, for their durability and resistance to wear and tear.

Product Description |
The metal shrapnel is a PET sheet containing metal shrapnel, which is used as a switch on circuit boards such as PCB or FPC, and plays an important role as a tactile switch between instruments. A layer of Rubber glue (silica gel) is printed on top of the Mylar or EMI layer, so this type of product can be firmly adhered to circuit boards such as PCB/FPC. Different samples can be made according to different sizes of remote controls by using metal shrapnel (mostly round), silicone and film. |
