General Purpose Silicone Sections - FDA
General purpose FDA extruded silicone sections are a flexible, food-grade material designed for reliable performance in both high and low temperature environments. Manufactured from non-toxic FDA-approved silicone, it offers excellent durability, elasticity, and resistance to ageing, making it suitable for hygienic and sensitive applications. Operating temperature range: -60°C to +230°C (up to +250°C for short periods).
High Temperature Silicone Sections
High temperature extruded silicone sections are a flexible, heat-resistant extrusion designed for reliable performance in demanding thermal environments. It maintains excellent flexibility and structural integrity under prolonged exposure to elevated temperatures, making it suitable for industrial, automotive, and fluid transfer applications. Operating temperature range: -60°C to +270°C (up to +300°C for short periods).
Metal Detectable Silicone Sections
Metal detectable extruded silicone sections are a specialised food-grade extrusion designed for use in hygiene-critical environments where contamination control is essential. It contains a detectable additive that allows it to be identified by metal detection systems, helping improve product safety and compliance. It remains flexible, durable, and suitable for food and pharmaceutical processing. Operating temperature range: -60°C to +200°C (up to +230°C for short periods).
Platinum Silicone Sections
Platinum extruded silicone sections are a high-purity, flexible extrusion manufactured using a platinum curing process for enhanced cleanliness and consistency. It offers excellent clarity, low extractables, and strong resistance to ageing, making it ideal for medical, pharmaceutical, and food-grade fluid transfer applications. Operating temperature range: -60°C to +230°C (up to +250°C for short periods).
Flame Retardant Silicone Sections
Flame retardant extruded silicone sections are a specialised flexible extrusion designed to resist ignition and reduce flame propagation in high-risk environments. It combines the durability and flexibility of silicone with enhanced fire performance, making it suitable for electrical, industrial, and safety-critical applications. Operating temperature range: -60°C to +230°C (up to +250°C for short periods).
Conductive Silicone Sections
Conductive extruded silicone sections are a flexible, electrically conductive extrusion designed for applications requiring EMI/RFI shielding or static dissipation. It combines the resilience of silicone with consistent electrical conductivity, making it suitable for specialised industrial and electronic environments. Operating temperature range: -60°C to +230°C (up to +250°C for short periods).
