Ensure
reliable fluid, air, and material delivery
Ensure reliable fluid, air, and material delivery
through heat, cold, pressure, fuel, oil, and
chemical attack.
Are you manufacturing or specifying elastomeric hoses, tubing, rollers,
conveyors, or other delivery devices that must perform in challenging operating
or processing environments? If your elastomeric delivery system must:
-
Reliably transport fluids, air, gases, food products, or manufacturing
materials
-
Withstand a wide range of temperatures, from cold to hot and back
again
-
Maintain its integrity under heat aging
-
Resist steam, chemical solvents or cleaning agents
-
Remain impervious to fluids, oil, combustion by-products, or coolants
-
Mechanically resist pressure
-
Meet specifications for flame resistance, low smoke, or low toxicity
-
Or comply with food-contact regulations
You can rely on the proven performance of
SILASTIC® brand silicone elastomers and custom compounding expertise
from Dow Corning.
Meet the unique requirements of your application
Silastic silicone elastomers and fluorosilicone (FSR)
elastomers:
-
Have a wider operating temperature range than most organic elastomers
-
Resist steam
-
Give you flame-resistant and low-smoke, low-toxicity options, as well as
FDA and food contact choices
-
Plus, FSR elastomers resist chemical solvents, fuels, and oils that would
quickly degrade organic elastomers
This makes them the ideal choice for food and beverage delivery tubing and
hoses; conveyor belts; industrial rollers; and automotive powertrain hoses,
including fluid delivery hoses, air delivery hoses, turbocharger hoses,
high-temperature hoses, and coolant hoses.
Give yourself more manufacturing flexibility
Silastic silicone elastomers can be easier to process than organic
elastomers. They also give you more flexibility in your choice of manufacturing
method, including extrusion, co-extrusion,
and molding.
