This material stands up to ozone and UV exposure, weathering, and dry heat. Silicone is widely chosen for very good compression set resistance across its range and an exceptionally wide service temperature range. Applications involving steam above its rated range or hydrocarbon fuels and oils call for a different compound.

This item is metal detectable for HACCP and foreign-body control programs. You will find this material specified across electronics and electrical enclosures, food and beverage processing, and ovens and heated equipment.

0286MD275 ships by the foot. Check the compound against your process media, pressure and temperature before committing to a design.
