Typical Properties of 50 Durometer Low Temperature Grade Silicone
Description: 50 durometer low temperature silicone is designed to be utilized in applications that require silicone and where the material will be exposed to lower temperatures. This non-toxic and chemically inert material is also fungus resistant. 50 durometer low temperature silicone is suitable for gasket applications that require a service temperature range of -103°F to +450°F. 50 durometer low-temperature silicone takes a low compression set and provides excellent UV and ozone resistance. 50 durometer low-temperature silicone is formulated to meet the physical requirements of ZZ-R-765 Class 1A Grade 50 and Class 1B Grade 50.
M&P Sealing’s low temperature silicone gasket material is available in a wide range of durometers ranging from as soft as 40 Durometer to as hard as 60 Durometer. 50 durometer low temperature silicone can be converted into rolls ranging from as narrow as 1/4″ wide, up to 36″ in width. M&P Sealing can supply 50 durometer low-temperature silicone without adhesive or with either our standard acrylic adhesive or our high-temperature acrylic adhesive. 50 durometer low temperature silicone can be produced to a wide range thicknesses. Please contact M&P Sealing to discuss your application requiring 50 durometer low temperature silicone, as this material is made to order only. M&P Sealing has the ability to fabricate 50 durometer low temperature silicone by die-cutting or waterjet cutting to meet your requirements and can provide support from the design stage through the production phase.
