Silicone Cord 60 Shore - FDA & WRC Approved
Silicone cord is a flexible, durable, and temperature-resistant rubber product designed for sealing, gasketing, and insulation applications. Made from high-grade silicone rubber, it offers excellent resistance to extreme temperatures, UV, ozone, moisture, and chemicals.
Its smooth, non-toxic, and non-reactive surface makes it suitable for both industrial and food-grade uses, with outstanding electrical insulation and weathering properties. Silicone cord is easy to cut, join, and bond, making it highly versatile for custom O-rings, sealing profiles, and cushioning components.
Key Features:
- Wide operating temperature range (typically -60°C to +200°C, depending on grade)
- Excellent UV, ozone, and weather resistance
- Flexible and compressible for effective sealing
- Available in various diameters, densities, and hardness (shore A)
- Suitable for FDA-approved and medical-grade applications (on request)
- Easy to cut and join into custom seals or gaskets
Applications:
- Custom O-ring and gasket fabrication
- Food and beverage processing equipment
- Electrical insulation and protective covers
- Aerospace, automotive, and marine industries
- General sealing and cushioning applications
