Suction cup material HT1

The suction cup material HT1 is a special compound developed by Schmalz that is specially tailored to the requirements of glass handling. The material HT1 was designed to handle sensitive surfaces such as glass or displays safely and with minimized marks, while ensuring maximum process reliability. Thanks to its high temperature resistance, the material HT1 is also ideal for demanding applications in the automotive glass sector.

Typical applications for the suction cup material HT1

The material HT1 is mainly used in the glass sector. In the automotive industry, suction cups made of the material HT1 enable the safe handling of front and side windows – even at high temperatures of up to 170 °C, as occur directly after the bending furnace. For flat and float glass, the suction cups ensure precise positioning without displacement. For displays and touchscreens, the material protects surfaces from unwanted marks while handling and ensures the highest quality. The suction cups made of the material HT1 also contribute to efficient integration into production lines for window glass and thus supports seamless processes in glass production.

Advantages of the suction cup material HT1

The material HT1 has properties that make it particularly suitable for various industrial applications.

Its high temperature and ozone resistance ensures a long service life even under demanding conditions. The good abrasion resistance reduces the resulting abrasion, keeping processes cleaner and reducing the risk of contamination. At the same time, the material HT1enables handling with leaving minimized marks, reliably protecting sensitive surfaces.
