04. Low Coefficient of Friction

Smooth as Silq.

The Silq Solution

A 15X Reduction in Silicone's Coefficient of Friction

Soft rubbers like silicone are almost impossible to slide across other surfaces without dragging or chattering. Sliding these high CoF materials across skin or tissue can cause damage or trauma. The Silq formulation can reduce the coefficient of friction of silicone surfaces by greater than 15x. It transforms the tacky surface into smooth, easy-to-slide material against tissue, metals, and plastics.
