Typical Properties of Style 60 Durometer Commercial Grade Silicone
Description: 60 durometer commercial grade silicone, which is designed for use in gaskets applications that do not require demanding physical properties, but where higher temperature resistance is required. 60 durometer commercial grade silicone has a service temperature of -80°F to +450°F, with the ability to handle +500°F on an intermittent basis. Style 60 durometer commercial grade silicone offers excellent UV and ozone resistance. 60 durometer commercial grade silicone is a non-toxic and chemically inert silicone material.
M&P Sealing’s commercial grade silicone gasket material is available in a wide range of durometers, ranging from as soft as 30 Durometer to as hard as 80 Durometer with standard durometers in between. 60 durometer commercial grade silicone can be supplied in either red or black in color with select thicknesses available in grey. 60 durometer commercial grade silicone can be produced in rolls ranging from as narrow as 1/4″ wide, up to 48″ in width. M&P Sealing can supply 60 durometer commercial grade silicone without adhesive or with either our standard acrylic adhesive or our high-temperature acrylic adhesive. 60 durometer commercial grade silicone can be manufactured in thicknesses ranging from as thin as .016″ to as thick as 1″. M&P Sealing has the ability to fabricate 60 durometer commercial grade silicone by die-cutting or waterjet cutting to meet your prototype and production requirements.
