As a material, Silicone is known for physiological inertness and low toxicity, flexibility that holds at very low temperatures. The material holds up against many oxidizing chemicals, dry heat, and extreme heat and cold. Service temperature is rated from -80°F (-62.2°C) through 450°F (232.2°C). Exposure to hydrocarbon fuels and oils or concentrated acids will shorten service life.
