Description:Silicone o-rings is a high-performance elastomer with exceptional resistance to temperature extreme, tensile strength, elongation, tear strength, and compression set. FDA compliant Silicone o-rings apply for the Pharmaceutical & Food industries.
Silicone are excellent seal materials for extreme temperature in static applications. Outstanding flex and fatigue life, very good for ozone and UV radiation, insulating properties, and physiologically neutral.
Silicone has excellent weathering properties and handles both hot and cold temperature extremes; resists ozone and oxygen attack. But silicone rubber has poor resistance to fuels, hydrocarbons and fail performance when exposed to acids, alkalis and solventsoils.
Silicone o-rings remain functional within a temperature range of -60¡ãC to +225¡ãC. Some special compounds resist even higher temperatures.The low temperature flexibility of silicone o-ring is unmatched by any other elastomer. Silicone o-rings has outstanding tensile strength, elongation, tear strength, and compression set. The versatility and long service life of Silicone o-rings make it ideal for a wide variety of applications.
Our FDA approved silicone o-rings are fabricated to meet all of your blueprint specifications and tolerance requirements in order to suit your particular application. All food grade silicone products we manufacture are FDA compliant. Food Grade (FDA) silicone is very clean,odorless, tasteless, peroxide-free, and fungus resistant making it ideal in applications where food is present,are used in many food and medical and semiconductor applications.
The silicone o-rings is commonly referred to as a VMQ o-rings, SIL o-ring or PVMQ o-rings.
