Silicone is valued for flexibility that holds at very low temperatures and an exceptionally wide service temperature range. Expect good resistance to dry heat, extreme heat and cold, and weathering. Published continuous service range is -80°F (-62.2°C) to 450°F (232.2°C). Exposure to abrasive dynamic service or concentrated acids will shorten service life.
The compound meets FDA requirements for food contact, is metal detectable for HACCP and foreign-body control programs. Maintenance and OEM teams specify it across pharmaceutical manufacturing, sanitary process lines, and food and beverage processing.
Reference part number SFDA1.5X15 when ordering; the item is sold individually. Unit weight is approximately 0.0064 g. Confirm chemical compatibility, pressure and temperature against your own application requirements before installing. APG can cross-reference from an existing part number, a drawing or a physical sample if this size is not an exact match.
