60 Shore FDA Grade Silicone Sheet – Food Safe, Heat Resistant, Flexible, Non-Toxic, High-Quality Silicone Rubber, 1mm to 10mm Thickness, Various Sizes

60 Shore FDA Grade Silicone Sheet: A Reliable Solution for Food and Clean Industry Applications

Introduction
The 60 Shore FDA Grade Silicone Sheet is a high-quality, versatile material, ideal for use in food, pharmaceutical, and other industries where hygiene and safety are paramount. Available in various thicknesses and widths, this silicone sheet is sold per linear metre, providing flexibility for any project size. With its unique combination of durability, temperature resistance, and compliance with stringent regulatory standards, it stands as a preferred choice for applications that require superior performance and reliability.

FDA Compliance for Safe Use
This silicone sheet is fully compliant with FDA Standard 21 CFR 177.2600, making it safe for direct contact with food products. It also meets other important regulatory standards, such as EU 1935/2004 and BFR XV, ensuring its suitability for use in clean environments. These certifications guarantee that the material does not leach harmful substances, making it an ideal choice for gaskets, seals, and liners in food processing equipment, pharmaceuticals, and other sensitive industries.

Exceptional Temperature Resistance
One of the standout features of the 60 Shore FDA Grade Silicone Sheet is its impressive temperature resistance. It can maintain flexibility and resilience in extreme conditions, withstanding temperatures as low as -60°C and as high as +300°C. This makes it suitable for both hot and cold environments, ensuring consistent performance in demanding applications. Unlike many other elastomers, silicone can endure high heat without losing its structural integrity, making it ideal for applications like oven seals, high-temperature gaskets, and more.

Durable and Resilient Material
The silicone sheet offers excellent tear resistance, tensile strength, and elongation at break, ensuring a long-lasting and reliable performance even in challenging environments. With a tensile strength of 9 MPa and 350% elongation at break, this material can handle mechanical stress without compromising its properties. Additionally, its compression set of 11% after 24 hours at 150°C ensures that it maintains its shape and effectiveness over time, making it a durable choice for sealing applications.

Versatile Applications
This silicone sheet is highly versatile, making it suitable for a wide range of uses. In addition to being ideal for food processing and pharmaceutical industries, it is also used in automotive, marine, and electrical applications. The material’s natural electrical insulation properties make it valuable for use in environments where static discharge must be controlled. It can also be compounded for higher resistance to static charges or modified for low-resistance signal conduction, offering flexibility in specialised electrical applications.

Customisation Options for Every Need
Available in thicknesses ranging from 0.3mm to 12mm, and widths of 1.2 metres, this silicone sheet can be tailored to meet the unique demands of various projects. Customers can purchase custom lengths by the metre, with a maximum roll length of 10 metres. Additionally, the standard 60 Shore hardness can be adjusted from 30° to 80° Shore A for specific applications. Colour options include translucent (opaque), white, red oxide, as well as custom colours like blue, grey, and black. This extensive range ensures that you can find the perfect match for your project requirements.

Specialised Services and Additional Products
Beyond the standard silicone sheeting, we offer a range of related services and products to meet diverse needs. These include cutting and fabrication services for gaskets, seals, and strips, as well as adhesive-backed options for easier installation. For unique applications, we also offer moulded sheets in custom colours and hardness ranges, catering to smaller-scale projects. Our colour matching service allows customers to match silicone sheeting to RAL/PANTONE colours or sample swatches, providing tailored solutions for specific aesthetic or functional requirements.

Silicone Sheeting: Resistant to Weather and UV Exposure
The 60 Shore FDA Grade Silicone Sheet is also known for its outstanding resistance to ultraviolet (UV) light, ozone, seawater, and weathering, making it suitable for outdoor applications. It remains stable under prolonged exposure to these elements, ensuring that it retains its properties even when used in harsh outdoor environments. This makes it an ideal choice for marine seals, weather-resistant gaskets, and outdoor equipment.

Conclusion
The 60 Shore FDA Grade Silicone Sheet is a premium material designed for industries where safety, durability, and performance are crucial. Its impressive temperature range, compliance with strict food and pharmaceutical standards, and customisable options make it a reliable choice for various applications. Whether you need a high-performance gasket, a food-safe seal, or a durable lining material, this silicone sheet provides the quality and versatility you need. With its exceptional properties, it offers peace of mind for any application, ensuring long-lasting and efficient results
