Silicone Gaskets: Properties and Benefits

Silicone gaskets are preferred in various industries as they offer superior performance, durability, and reliability in a wide range of applications compared to other gasket materials. Silicone gaskets are great for:

Extreme temperature tolerance

Silicone gaskets are valued for their temperature resistance, making them ideal for demanding applications in the aerospace and defense industries. These gaskets remain flexible and are effective in a broad temperature range from -58 °F to +450 °F without becoming brittle or losing their sealing integrity.

Environmental resistance

Silicone gaskets can also offer resistance to extreme weathering, including exposure to UV light, ozone, humidity, and sunlight over long periods. These gaskets are also resistant to fungal growth, ensuring longevity in damp environments.

Inert and food-grade qualities

Silicone is a chemically inert, non-toxic elastomer that does not impart odor or taste. This is why FDA-grade silicone gaskets are favored in food, beverage, and medical applications, as they are ideal for requiring clean, sanitary sealing.

Chemical and flame resistance

Silicone gaskets are also resistant to many oils, lubricants, and chemicals, which is why they are used in aerospace applications, as they can withstand exposure to fluids and high heat without significant degradation. Silicone gaskets can even be formulated with special properties such as flame retardance, high-strength, and EMI shielding to meet unique application requirements.

Common Applications of Silicone Gaskets

Due to their extreme durability and resistance to weather, temperature, and chemical exposure, silicone gaskets have applications in a wide range of industries, including:

Medical, pharmaceutical, and food equipment

Silicone gaskets are also commonly found in medical devices, pharmaceutical processing equipment, and food and beverage machinery due to their inertness and compliance with FDA standards. They ensure sanitary, leakproof seals in equipment such as pumps, valves, mixers, and sterile enclosures. Additionally, silicone gaskets prevent cross-contamination and can withstand cleaning and sterilization processes.

Aerospace

Silicone gaskets are widely used in aircraft due to their durability. They provide reliable seals in engine components, fuel systems, and exhaust systems, where high-temperature resistance is crucial. Additionally, their ability to maintain an airtight seal under extreme temperature swings and exposure to fluids makes them ideal for aerospace applications.

Electronics and outdoor systems

Silicone gaskets also excel in protecting sensitive electronics and outdoor equipment. They are frequently used to seal enclosures, electrical cabinets, lighting fixtures, sensors, and connectors against dust, water, and environmental ingress. Because silicone withstands UV and weather exposure, these gaskets also help keep telecommunications and HVAC systems and lighting housings sealed and functional over long service lives.
