LED Lighting and Electronics
RAND Manufacturing makes die cut LED gaskets for thermal management and environmental sealing in both indoor and outdoor LED lighting. We also supply die cut gaskets for electronics and for cannabis grow lights. Although we do not serve the consumer market directly, we supply original equipment manufacturers (OEMs).
Die Cut LED Gaskets for Environmental Sealing
Die cut gaskets for environmental sealing are made of weather-resistant materials, typically closed cell sponges or foams. They may use pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) for ease of application. These are some of the materials we work with:
- EPDM sponge
- Silicone sponge
- Neoprene sponge
- Urethane foam
Celera Thermal Management Materials
RAND Manufacturing also fabricates high-performance thermal management products with materials from Celera. The end-use applications include:
- Street lighting
- High bays and industrial
- Linear fixtures
- Indoor and architectural
These are some of the Celera products we can die cut for you.Â
- FlexGraf thermally conductive graphite sheets are used for very high thermal loads generated by super-high and high-power LED packages.
- THERMALTape thermally conductive adhesive tapes are used for printed circuit board (PCB) attachment to aluminum profiles and lower thermal loads generated by LEDs.
- COOLPad low compression silicone pads for high thermal loads generated by chip on board (COB) packages and low clamping force between the PCB and the heat sink.
- Celera LED Glue, as shown in the video below.
Types of Die Cut LED Gaskets
- LED enclosure gaskets
- LED bezel gaskets
- Thermal interface pads for heat reduction
- Gaskets and pads for LED fixture retrofits
LED Enclosure Gaskets
LED enclosure gaskets, or housing gaskets, seal outdoor LED lighting fixtures against rain, snow, ice, and humidity. They need to withstand compression-set and may need to meet UL 1584, IP 66, or NEMA 4 requirements.
LED Bezel Gaskets
LED bezel gaskets are used with lighting designs such as high mast fixtures and cobra head luminaires. They provide a weather-proof seal.
Thermal Interface Pads
Thermal interface pads promote heat transfer away from the LED driver, a heat source, to a heat sink or heat sink housing. RAND Manufacturing can die cut thermal interface pads from thermally conductive materials that include graphite foil and silicone rubber
Gaskets and Pads for LED Fixture Retrofits
RAND Manufacturing can also die cut gaskets and pads for retrofitting light fixtures in existing LED packages.
