Silicone is specified here for flexibility that holds at very low temperatures, physiological inertness and low toxicity. It resists extreme heat and cold, ozone and UV exposure, and weathering. Rated temperature range runs from -80°F (-62.2°C) to 450°F (232.2°C) in continuous service. Exposure to concentrated acids or hydrocarbon fuels and oils will shorten service life.
This o-ring meets FDA requirements for food contact, is metal detectable for HACCP and foreign-body control programs. It sees regular use in ovens and heated equipment, food and beverage processing, and medical devices.
Stocked as SFDA2.5X42 and sold individually. Unit weight is approximately 0.0064 g. As always, verify media compatibility and operating conditions against the requirements of your specific application.
