A Silicone O-ring - 70 Shore A with FDA and EC1935-2004 certifications is a versatile and reliable sealing solution. These O-rings, made from VMQ (silicone) material, are known for their excellent resistance to aging, ozone, UV radiation, oxygen, and various weather conditions. Due to these properties, they are ideal for applications requiring strict hygiene standards, such as in the food and medical industries.
The silicone material does not release any odor or taste substances and has excellent electrical insulation properties and high gas permeability. Therefore, these O-rings are often chosen for static sealing applications due to the relatively low tear strength and high coefficient of friction of a Silicone O-ring - 70 Shore A.
An FDA certificate indicates that a product meets the stringent standards of the United States Food and Drug Administration. For a Silicone O-ring - 70 Shore A, this means the material is safe for use in applications that come into contact with food and medical products. This certification ensures that the material does not release harmful substances that could endanger health.
Obtaining an FDA certificate is essential for products used in the food and medical industries because it provides confidence that the O-rings meet high hygiene and safety standards. A Silicone O-ring - 70 Shore A with an FDA certificate is a reliable choice for applications where food safety and health are paramount.
The EC1935-2004 certificate is a European standard ensuring that materials and articles in contact with food are safe. This certificate guarantees that our Silicone O-ring - 70 Shore A does not release harmful substances into the food they come into contact with.
Compliance with the EC1935-2004 standard is crucial for manufacturers wanting to sell their products on the European market because it provides a high level of protection for public health and consumers. A Silicone O-ring - 70 Shore A with this certificate is suitable for various food processing applications, providing extra assurance that they meet stringent European regulations for food contact materials.
Our Silicone O-ring - 70 Shore A and the certifications FDA and EC1935-2004 have several excellent properties. They are resistant to vegetable and animal oils and fats, water up to a temperature of 100°C, and various organic and inorganic acids and bases. Additionally, they offer good resistance to aliphatic motor and transmission oils, ozone, and aging.
The temperature range of these Silicone O-rings is between -60°C and +200°C, with special compounds capable of withstanding up to +230°C. This versatility makes them suitable for both low and high-temperature applications. Despite their many advantages, Silicone O-rings have some limitations, such as low resistance to silicone oils and greases, aromatic mineral oils, motor fuels, and water vapor above 120°C.
Using Silicone O-rings with 70 Shore A hardness and the certifications FDA and EC1935-2004 offers significant advantages. A Silicone O-ring - 70 Shore A is particularly clean and hygienic, making it ideal for use in the food and medical industries. Their excellent resistance to ozone, UV radiation, and aging ensures a long lifespan and reliability, even in harsh environmental conditions.
Moreover, a Silicone O-ring - 70 Shore A retains its elastic properties over a wide temperature range, allowing its use in both cold and warm applications. The high gas permeability and excellent electrical insulation properties increase their usability in various technical and industrial applications.
Silicone O-rings with a hardness of 70 Shore A and the certifications FDA and EC1935-2004 are widely used in different industries due to their versatility and reliability. In the food industry, they are used for sealing equipment that comes into direct contact with food, such as mixers, pumps, and valves.
In the medical sector, a Silicone O-ring - 70 Shore A is used for sealing medical devices and instruments where hygiene and safety are of utmost importance. Additionally, these O-rings are also used in the pharmaceutical industry in production equipment and packaging machines. The combination of chemical resistance and thermal stability makes them suitable for various industrial applications where high sealing requirements are demanded.
While Silicone O-rings with a hardness of 70 Shore A and the certifications FDA and EC1935-2004 offer many benefits, there are also some drawbacks. The mechanical properties of silicone are relatively weak, making these O-rings less suitable for dynamic applications where a lot of movement or wear occurs.
Their low tear strength and high coefficient of friction limit their use to mainly static seals. Additionally, they are not resistant to silicone oils and greases, aromatic mineral oils, and motor fuels, limiting their use in certain chemical and industrial environments. The initial cost of silicone O-rings may also be higher compared to other materials, although the long-term benefits often outweigh these costs.
