Silicone Rubber Cord

Silicone rubber cord (SI) is a synthetic elastomer crafted from silicon, carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. It offers exceptional compressibility over a wide temperature range, features a non-stick, watertight surface, and effectively resists weathering, UV light, and ozone. Additionally, it provides excellent electrical insulation, holds WRAS / WRc approval, and meets FDA and EC standards for food contact. However, silicone is not suitable for abrasive environments and should be avoided in the presence of acids, ketones, or petrochemicals.

Henry Gallacher supplies silicone rubber cord in various colours and diameters, ideal for high-temperature sealing tasks. It is widely used in the food processing sector and can be vulcanised to form reliable O-rings.

We also supply metal-detectable silicone cord to minimise contamination risks, and offer a closed-cell silicone sponge cord for enhanced compressibility.

For specific diameters or colours not listed, please use the enquiry option at the top of the page, providing the product code and required quantity.

Applications

Ideal for high-temperature sealing, door and oven seals, packaging, and machinery in food processing.
