1. Explore the Versatile Silicone Rubber Cord
What is Silicone Rubber Cord?
Silicone Rubber Cord is a synthetic elastomer made by blending the elements, carbon,
oxygen, hydrogen. It finds its applications across various industries owing to its unique
physical properties.
Types of Silicone Rubber Cord
Depending upon the flexibility and durability required, the uncured silicone rubber is
treated under different methods and temperatures.
Solid Silicone Rubber (HTV) - To obtain this high-vulcanising rubber the silicone rubber
needs to be cured at very high temperatures. It finds its use in various industrial sectors like
 Automotive and Aerospace
 Mechanical and Plant Engineering
 Electrical Engineering
 Consumer Goods and Food industry
 Transmission and Distribution Cables
 Health Care and Medical Technology
 Construction
Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR) - It is also a high-vulcanising rubber, a two-part compound, in
the liquid state which needs to be cured along with a catalyst. It has low viscosity and a quick
cycle time. Its versatility allows it to be appropriate for the most sensitive of sectors for
making the medical industry.

2. Room Temperature Vulcanizing – This silicone rubber cures at room temperature. It can be
manufactured both in one part and two-part compound form. Like LSR, this RTV also needs
a catalyst tin platinum or peroxide for curing. RTVs are usually used to make silicone molds
and casts.
Key Features of Silicone Rubber Cord
 Highly flexible and compressible
 Highly resistant to Ultra Violet light and Ozone
 Resistant to Weathering
 Tolerant to both high and low temperatures
 Shore Hardness is 60 degrees (standard)
 The temperature range is -40 degrees up to +200 degrees Celsius.
 It has high electrical insulation properties.
 It has no toxic effect on coming in contact with drinking water and food.
Applications of Silicone Rubber cord
This man-made elastomer serves almost every industry. It is used in
 Silicone Rubber is an ideal material to make flexible and durable silicone die-cut
gaskets and rubber seals which find their applications in various industrial sectors.
transparent silicone rubber cords are also manufactured which are non-pigmented
and used in making invisible gaskets. They are also used in making transparent
membranes and flexible laboratory covers.
 This material is used to make silicon rubber tubing which is chemically inert, tasteless
and odourless, ideal for the packaging and food processing industry. It can be made
as food grade silicon rubber cord, Class VI or any other special grade compound as
per industry requirements.
 Carbon is added to this elastomer to obtain a conductive compound while retaining
its physical properties. This conductive material is used in making computer and
electronic components.
 The high-temperature resistance and chemical inertness make it the best choice in
making kitchenware and baking ware products. Moreover, the material is available in
vibrant colors which makes it an attractive option.
Standards
 It is FDA-approved as the material is used in the packaging and food processing
industry.
 Ours is NSF-51 Silicone Rubber Cord since the material comes in contact with food
and drinking water.
 Our UL-certified silicone rubber is safe to be used for further production methods.
