Silicone rubber vacuum pad
02 May 2018
The latest vacuum pad from SMC is the ZP3P, which has been designed to offer optimum absorbing performance and efficient handling. It features a blue coloured, silicone rubber pad that prevents wrinkles and is compliant with the FDA 21CFR§177.2600 elution test.

The ZP3P features a thin and soft pad skirt, with reduced leakage and a strong grip, making it suitable for use with thin workpieces that deform during adsorption.
Furthermore, the flat shape of the vacuum pad with a central stopper creates a surface that does not damage or deface the product and prevents wrinkles on thin materials such as vinyl and film.The pad is made from a silicone rubber that
is compliant with the FDA 21CFR§177.2600 elution test and is blue in colour so that it can be spotted easily during contamination inspections, making it ideal for the food and medical sectors.
