Catalog Specimen — Liquid Silicone

Soft-touch liquid silicone protective case with felt

Built from food-grade LSR elastomer co-moulded over an internal polycarbonate reinforcement core. Lined with 0.35 mm Japanese microfiber fleece to prevent glass backplate pitting.

20–40 USD each (base tier: $26 USD for standard models)
Liquid silicone phone case with soft inner microfiber fabric lining

Tri-layer composite structure and impact dampening

Cheap silicone covers are floppy sleeves that peel at the corners. Our Liquid Silicone case is a three-tier composite engineered around a rigid skeletal core.

Elastomer: Food-Grade Dow LSR (Shore 70A)

Inner Core: 0.8 mm Polycarbonate Backbone

Lining: 0.35 mm Toray Microfiber Fleece

Lead Time: Same-day dispatch or 1–3 days

Liquid silicone rubber (LSR) vs standard compression silicone

Standard commercial phone covers use solid compression silicone, which attracts pocket lint through static charge and degrades within months into a sticky residue. We mould using two-part liquid silicone rubber (LSR) cured under high-pressure platinum catalysis. The molecular matrix produces an inert, non-porous exterior that naturally repels lint and resists skin oil softening.

Beneath the 1.2 mm outer silicone layer sits an injection-moulded polycarbonate skeletal cage. This rigid structure prevents the perimeter from flexing loose over time, maintaining a continuous 1.4 mm screen elevation lip even during lateral twisting forces.

Silicone Gauge 1.2 mm
Internal Core 0.8 mm PC
Fleece Lining 0.35 mm
Drop Impact 2.0 m

Microfiber fleece backing prevents backplate pitting

The most common failure mode of unlined phone cases is grit entrapment. Fine quartz dust enters through speaker ports, sits between the phone’s glass back and the case, and acts as sandpaper during daily pocket vibration, leaving permanent frosting scratches.

Our Japanese Toray microfiber fleece lining traps ambient dust particles inside dense 0.35 mm polyester-polyamide loops, keeping them cushioned away from the glass. Independent tactile button covers moulded from rigid ABS provide a crisp, audible mechanical click rather than the squishy, unresponsive travel typical of bare silicone cases.

Component Layer Material Chemistry Physical Role
Exterior Skin Platinum-cured LSR (Shore 70A) Grip friction, impact dampening, UV resistance
Structural Skeleton Rigid Polycarbonate Exoskeleton Dimensional stability, prevents rim stretch
Interior Buffer Toray Synthetic Microfiber Fleece Dust particle capture, scratch prevention
Button Actuators Co-moulded ABS Switch Caps Direct 1:1 tactical button rebound
Camera Rim Lip 1.35 mm Raised Silicone Perimeter Elevates camera glass above flat tables

Verified Chicago procurement proof

OnlyCases operates as a registered entity in the State of Illinois. We supply commercial tech firms, retail shops, and corporate fleets with certified component inventories accompanied by clean commercial invoices and batch spec manifests. Alina Koval, our Procurement Manager since 2022, inspects each production run against factory master cad models.

Every batch of Liquid Silicone cases arriving at our Chicago staging floor is evaluated for silicone-to-polycarbonate bond shear strength. We verify that perimeter edges do not delaminate when folded to 90 degrees. Stocked colors (Basalt Black, Forest Green, Deep Charcoal) ship same-day for orders placed by 2:00 PM CST.

What drives the unit quote

Liquid silicone unit prices sit between $20 and $40 USD. Standard stocked units quote at $26 USD each. Factors determining the quote:

  • MagSafe Integration: Incorporating a 36-magnet NdFeB magnetic array between the PC core and fleece backing adds $8 USD.
  • Custom Pantone Pigments: Custom corporate fleet colors require a minimum batch run of 50 units and carry a setup fee amortised across the batch.
  • Model Complexity: Ultra-large flagship models with complex curved camera plateaus carry a slight material volume differential.

Clear trade-offs and buyer objections

Silicone has distinct mechanical characteristics. We tell you exactly where it thrives and what limitations to anticipate before submitting your RFQ.

Who this case is NOT for

Liquid silicone has a high coefficient of friction. If you wear tight raw denim trousers and slide your phone in and out of pocket pockets forty times an hour, the silicone surface will grip the pocket fabric and pull the pocket lining inside-out. For rapid pocket sliding, our rigid UltraSlim Polycarbonate Case is far superior.

Additionally, while our LSR silicone repels dry dust, it will absorb wet oil and solvent residues if exposed to harsh industrial petroleum degreasers. For machine shops or automotive garages, our TPU-armored cases offer better chemical resistance.

No. We employ high-temperature chemical silane coupling agents prior to liquid injection. The LSR elastomer forms a permanent covalent bond with the polycarbonate skeleton, preventing delamination at thin flex points around the USB-C cutout.

Yes. Because the liquid silicone surface is vulcanised and non-porous, surface marks can be wiped clean with a 70% isopropyl alcohol prep pad or mild soap and warm water without altering the matte tactile feel.

No. The fleece is thermally sheared and ultrasonic-sealed along its perimeter. It contains zero loose raw fibers, leaving the rear glass surface completely pristine when the phone is removed.
