Product Description
Silicone O-Ring and O-Ring Cord
Silicone is a semi-organic elastomer with outstanding resistance to extremes of temperature with corresponding resistance to compression set. Silicone O-Ring and O-Ring Cord utilizes a flexible silicone backbone rather than a carbon backbone like many other elastomers and has a very low glass transition temperatures.
Versatile Applications Across IndustriesWhether for sealing and gasketing, fluid transport, or use in food, pharmaceutical, automotive, or water treatment settings, silicone O-Rings and cords deliver exceptional performance. Their resistance to heat, ozone, weather, and chemicals makes them trustworthy for both standard and custom applications in demanding environments.
Exceptional Material Properties for ReliabilityManufactured from high-grade silicone, these O-Rings exhibit a smooth, uniform finish and achieve excellent dielectric properties and low water absorption (<1%). With a high elongation at break (300%) and robust tear strength (15 kN/m), they ensure dependability even in challenging operational conditions.
Flexible Solutions and Custom SizingAvailable in standard diameters from 1 mm to 40 mm and supplied as single O-rings or extruded cord in coils up to 100 meters, these products accommodate specific customer requirements. Choose from various packaging types and enjoy tailored fits for both standard and non-standard sealing needs.
FAQ's of Silicone O-Ring and O-Ring Cord:
Q: How do silicone O-Rings and O-Ring cords benefit sealing applications?
A: Silicone O-Rings and cords deliver outstanding sealing performance due to their high elongation at break (300%), robust tear strength, and excellent resistance to heat, ozone, and chemicals. These properties ensure long-lasting, reliable seals for hydraulic, pneumatic, food processing, and other demanding industrial uses.
Q: What is the process for sizing and ordering customized silicone O-Rings or cords?
A: Customers can specify the required diameter, length, width, and color. We supply O-Rings ranging from 1 mm to 40 mm in diameter, and cords up to 100 meters per coil. Both standard and non-standard sizes are accommodated, and custom colors are available on request for tailored applications.
Q: When is it essential to use FDA-compliant silicone O-Rings?
A: FDA-compliant silicone O-Rings should be used in applications that involve direct contact with food, beverages, or pharmaceuticals, such as in food processing equipment or medical devices. This ensures the material meets strict health and safety standards suitable for sensitive environments.
Q: Where are these silicone O-Rings and cords typically distributed from?
A: These products are distributed, supplied, and traded by reputable companies across India, supporting a wide array of local industries. They are widely available to industrial and OEM clients, ensuring timely delivery for both small and large requirements.
Q: What is the benefit of the excellent electrical insulation properties of these silicone seals?
A: The exceptional dielectric properties make these silicone O-Rings and cords ideal for electrical and electronic applications, providing safe and effective insulation against electrical currents and reducing the risk of malfunctions or short circuits.
Q: How durable are silicone O-Rings under high pressure and temperature conditions?
A: Engineered for durability, these O-Rings withstand pressures up to 10 bar and continuous temperatures from -60C up to +230C. They also maintain compression set below 25% after 22 hours at 175C, ensuring reliable sealing even in extreme operating environments.
