Blue silicone rubber sheeting (SI) is a premium-grade synthetic elastomer known for its flexibility, stability, and visual detectability. Composed of silicon, carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, this sheeting is tailored for food and pharmaceutical sectors where hygiene and traceability are paramount. It performs reliably in both low and high-temperature environments and exhibits superior resistance to ozone, UV, and weathering.
This variant is particularly valuable in visually monitored systems to ensure seal integrity and minimize contamination risk. It is not suitable for use with acids, ketones, or petrochemicals and has limited abrasion resistance.
