Silicone rubber sheet, tubing, cord, profiles and custom parts
Solid and cellular silicone rubber products in standard and specialist grades. Sheet, strips, tubing, cord, extruded profiles, reinforced hose, gaskets and custom components selected to suit your technical requirements.
Why silicone rubber?
Silicone rubber is a flexible elastomer suitable for a wide temperature range. Its resistance to weathering, ozone and UV exposure makes it useful for sealing, insulation, food-processing, pharmaceutical, mechanical-engineering and many other technical applications.
Standard solid silicone sheet is typically suitable for approximately −60 to +230 °C. Specialist compounds can cover more demanding high- or low-temperature conditions. For extruded tubing and profiles, the exact service range depends on the compound and product design.
- 10–90 Shore A – wide hardness range for solid grades
- −60…+230 °C – typical range for standard sheet
- up to 300 °C – special high-temperature grades
- custom manufacturing – to size, colour, hardness and geometry

Silicone rubber sheet and strip
Solid silicone rubber sheet is used for industrial gaskets, heat-resistant separators, covers, vibration damping and custom-cut components. Available hardnesses can span approximately 10–90 Shore A, with standard widths around 1200 mm and selected grades available up to 1800 mm wide.
- general-purpose 20–80 Shore A
- platinum-cured
- high-temperature
- high-tensile / vacuum grade
- metal-detectable
- electrically conductive
- glass-fabric reinforced
- fluorosilicone
- transparent / optically clear
- flame-retardant
- moulded and textured finishes
- coloured sheet
Sheet can also be converted into cut-to-width strips, gaskets, washers and custom geometries.
Silicone sponge and foam rubber
Cellular silicone materials are well suited to applications requiring a soft, compressible seal with good recovery. More closed-cell sponge structures can be selected for low water absorption, while more open foam structures can provide excellent recovery after compression.
General-purpose, high-temperature, food-contact, fluorosilicone, thermally conductive, high-recovery and flame-retardant grades are available, plain or self-adhesive, in rolls up to 1000 mm wide or as extruded strip. Small quantities can also be supplied.
Silicone rubber tubing
Silicone tubing can be supplied from small-bore sizes to large-diameter designs. Depending on the application, platinum- or peroxide-cured compounds, different hardnesses, wall thicknesses, colours and specialist grades can be selected.
- platinum-cured translucent, white or black tubing
- peroxide-cured silicone tubing
- thin-wall insulating tubing / sleeving
- coloured vacuum tubing
- food-contact tubing
- grades suitable for peristaltic pumps
- large-diameter tubing
- custom size, colour and hardness
When selecting tubing, consider the conveyed medium, operating temperature, pressure or vacuum, bending requirements and any required compliance documentation.
Silicone cord and O-rings
Silicone cord is a simple and versatile sealing material. It is available in solid and sponge versions, with various diameters, hardnesses, densities and colours. High-temperature, metal-detectable and food-contact grades can be selected for specialist requirements.
Cord can be cut to length or joined at the ends to create custom-diameter O-rings and frame seals.
Silicone profiles in standard and custom geometries
Custom extruded profiles can be produced using existing tooling or developed from a drawing or sample. Solid, sponge and co-extruded constructions are available.
- P, D and double-P profiles – For flexible sealing of doors, covers, machine enclosures and mating surfaces.
- U, C and L profiles – For edge protection, panel retention, pipe-clamp lining and vibration damping.
- T, H, E and h profiles – Groove-fitting, panel-joining and specialist sealing geometries.
- Omega, bulb and lip profiles – For flexible sealing and compensation of larger gaps with low closing force.
- Oven-door and glazing profiles – Profiles designed for heat-resistant door seals, glazing and panel systems.
- Custom / dual hardness – Combinations of solid and sponge silicone, co-extruded constructions or fully custom profile geometries.
Reinforced silicone hose
Where unreinforced silicone tubing does not provide sufficient mechanical strength, braided or wire-reinforced hose can be used. Reinforcement may use glass fibre, polyester or other technical fibres; spiral-wire constructions are also available for vacuum service.
- braid-reinforced platinum- or peroxide-cured hose
- pressure and vacuum hose
- coolant hose
- fluorosilicone-lined construction
- elbows, straight connectors and custom mandrel-formed hose
Applications include food and beverage processing, pharmaceutical equipment, cooling circuits, suction and filling systems, hot water, steam and compressed air.
Gaskets, moulded and custom silicone parts
Flat gaskets, washers and custom-cut components can be produced from silicone sheet. Extruded profiles and cord can be joined into endless rings or frames, while moulded components can be manufactured with dedicated tooling.
- O-rings and joined cord rings
- flat gaskets and washers
- sleeves and rings cut from tubing
- caps, plugs and protective parts
- custom moulded components
- bonded and corner-joined profile frames
- small and larger production runs

Frequently asked questions
Platinum-cured or peroxide-cured?
The choice depends on the application. Platinum-cured silicone is often selected for hygienic, food-processing and pharmaceutical duties, while peroxide-cured grades can be a cost-effective option for many general industrial applications.
What temperature can silicone rubber withstand?
Standard sheet is typically suitable from approximately −60 to +230 °C. Specialist compounds are available for different ranges; the datasheet for the specific material should always be used as the reference.
