Product Details

Silicone is a semi-organic elastomer with outstanding resistance to extremes of temperature with corresponding resistance to compression set and retention of flexibility. Silicone elastomers provide excellent resistance to ozone, oxygen, and moisture. Low physical strength and abrasion resistance combined with high friction properties limit silicone to static seal applications. Silicone utilizes a flexible siloxane backbone rather than a carbon backbone like many other elastomers and has very low glass transition temperatures.

Temperature Range

Low -59° C
High 232° C

Hardness Range

10 to 85 Shore A

Application Advantages

Excellent heat resistance
Excellent resistance to ozone, sunlight and oxidation
Excellent electrical resistivity
Excellent flame resistance
Excellent resistance to water, ammonia and alkalis (dilute and concentrated)
Good compression set resistance
Good resistance to dilute acids
OK in steam, alcohol, concentrated acid, ketones and oxygenated solvents

Application Limitations

Poor mechanical properties rating
Low tensile strength
Poor resistance to aliphatic hydrocarbons
Poor resistance to oil and gasoline
Not recommended for degreasers and solvents, especially chlorinated solvents like methyl chloride

Usage:

High Temperature Seals, food grade application seals, Medical applications.

Company Details

Industrial Spares Manufacturing and Trading Company ( ISMAT ) was founded in 1981 by Ali Hussain Yakub a mechanical engineer from Sheffield UK. ISMAT initially started off as an industrial spares manufacturer catering to the various maintenance needs of industry and meeting the needs of its own trading outlets in Chennai, Bangalore and Coimbatore.
Over a period of time ISMAT has evolved from a rubber products maintenance supplier to a tier 1 OEM supplier supplying to various industry sectors like earth moving equipments, wind mill manufacturers valve, Pump and Automotive Industry etc.
