Si Coat™ is an abrasion resistant coating system developed by SiTECH Corp. for use in silicone rubber applications requiring superior wear protection.
Si Coat ™ is a tough, wear-resistant coating offering an outstanding abrasion resistance for elastomer keypad applications. Under independent lab test using an RCA abrasion wear tester, Si Coat I surpassed by more than 20 times the standard acceptance criteria for the keyboard/keypad industry. Now, you can be sure that the SiTECH’s rubber keypad will have the same consistent look and feel with no degradation throughout the life expectancy of your product.
When combining Si Coat I ™ with our proprietary screened silicone inks and Liquid Injection Molding, we offer you a unique set of features that will assure the right solution for your product requirements.
Si Coat I offers: 
When your product needs protection for harsh environments or put in a high usage industrial application, Si Coat I ™ with our silicone keypads is the solution for your product. Proven success in industries such as:
SiTECH’s mission is to insure you receive the finest service and the best possible product, every time. We have the resources, capabilities and technology to support your designs.
The RCA abrasion Wear Test method provides a reference and comparison data for the durability abrasion resistance of printed graphics on rubber and plastic keytops. Accepted standard is a minimum of 35 cycles.
Si Coat II™ is a chemical resistant coating system developed by SiTECH Corp. for use in silicone rubber applications requiring effective protection against petroleum based products and others oxidizing and chlorinated chemicals. The coating is homogeneous with the silicone rubber and forms a cross link to maintain its flexibility and resilience.
Si Coat II ™ , a tough chemical resistant coating, demonstrates exceptional resistance to chemical swelling and wear in a wide variety of environments without compromising the intrinsic tensile strength of silicone rubber.
What’s more, chemical resistance and wear are generally expensive requirements to comply to. Si Coat II ™ is a relatively inexpensive coating offering a cost-effective solution to extended product life. Now, you can be sure that the SiTECH rubber keypad will have the same consistent look and feel with no degradation throughout the life expectancy of your product.

Si Prime™ is a coating system specifically designed for bonding silicone rubber to a variety of different surfaces with common acrylic adhesives used in the membrane switch industry.
Si Prime™ offers the best solution to the intrinsic problem of bonding rubber to polyester switches for far less cost than mechanical means. A thin coating of Si Prime™ is added to the underside of a Silastikey silicone rubber array.
This coating serves as a bonding barrier between the silicone surface and an acrylic adhesive. When used in conjunction with any 3M™ 350 series Hi holding acrylic adhesive, Si Prime™ offers an outstanding high bond strength for elastomer keypad applications. Under independent lab test using ASTM standard D-3330, Si Prime™outperformed by more than two times the bonding capabilities of other silicone/acrylic adhesives.
