  1. Which silicone rubber material is right for your gaskets & sealing application?

  2. Understand things to consider while picking up the right rubber material for your application When it comes to picking the right rubber for an application, you must take into concern a number of material requirements in order to come to the correct decision on the material to use. There are a vast range of silicone rubber grades in today’s market available to engineers, designers and buyers. By understanding your material requirements we can advise on certain grades and/or specification.

  3. 1.) Environment – UV / Ozone / General Weathering Will the rubber gasket be exposed to outdoor environments where weathering could affect The rubber’s performance? If so, you need a rubber that makes well when exposed to these circumstances. Cracking, fading and brittleness can all occur if the rubber is not suited for outdoor conditions.

  4. 2.) High To Low Temperature Range Will the Rubber be exposed to extreme temperatures? What temperatures (High And Low) and for how long? An situation where temperatures vary will need a rubber that can cope up with altering heat.

  5. 3.) Outgassing & Color • Will the material need to be free from outgassing? • When looking into hot applications as outgassing can cause confusing of lenses and damage other critical components. This is critical in applications within the Rail, Aerospace and Automotive sectors due to the safety of passengers. • Color • Does the material need to be a specific color or will industry standard color be Ok? • We have the capability to exact colour match if this is required?

  6. 4.) Chemical Resistance • Will the rubber come into contact with any chemicals or fluids that could cause corrosion or damage? • If so, how long will it be in contact with the chemical for? • Knowing which chemicals affect particular rubbers is vital and at Accurate Rubber Corporation we know that silicone performs well with the majority of chemicals however there are some that silicone should not come into contact with.

  7. 5.) Flame Resistance • Does the rubber need industry specific flame ratings such as Ul-94v0, Ul-hb, Far Etc • When discussing specifications and approvals it is important to know if the rubber needs to have approval or will internal testing be avail to prove the material can come across these ratings?

  8. 5.) Cost Vs Lifespan Why should you consider Silicone when there are cheaper Rubbers on the market? Some rubbers cost a lot less than silicone, however when evaluating concert and lifespan there is a clear difference. Most rubbers need replacing a lot sooner than silicone mostly due to their poorer lifespan therefore making silicone the cheaper rubber over a longer period. When comparing the cost of altered rubbers make sure it is comparable in terms of performance and not just cost. silicone becomes the cheaper material over a longer period as it out lasts many other rubbers in application.
