Reglin Soft Silicone 40 is a premium grade 40 Duro food grade and heat resistant silicone rubber sheet.
FEATURES
Reglin Soft Silicone 40 Rubber Sheet is made from a premium Silicone rubber compound and will display very high temperature resistance. It will maintain its flexibility and physical properties over a wide temperature range. Silicone has excellent ozone resistance and is UV stable making it weather resistant and suitable for outdoor use.
Soft Silicone 40 is softer than standard Silicone and is highly flexible and compressible.
Reglin Silicone 40 Rubber Sheet is tested and conforms to FDA 21 CFR 177.2600 “Rubber articles intended for repeated use”. This makes it suitable for contact with dry, aqueous and fatty foods as defined by the FDA.
Silicone 40 Rubber Sheet is fully post cured. It is carefully produced to comply with European Commission regulations EC2023/2006 “good manufacturing practise for materials and articles intended to come into contact with food”.
Silicone 40 Rubber Sheet has low thermal and electrical conductivity and high dielectric strength. This makes it suitable for critical electrical and electronic insulating and isolating applications.
STANDARDS
Reglin Silicone 40 Rubber Sheet conforms with the following standards.
As stated in FDA CFR 21.177.2600. In accordance with good manufacturing practise finished rubber articles intended for repeated use in contact with food shall be thoroughly cleansed prior to their first use in contact with food.
APPLICATIONS
Reglin Silicone 40 Rubber Sheet has been designed primarily for use as a highly flexible and compressible strip, pad, gasket or lining.
It is typically used for sealing, insulating, isolating and protecting steel or other surfaces.
It is suitable for use in hygienic environments such as food, drink and pharmaceutical facilities as well as sensitive electrical and critical high temperature applications.
Its properties make it suitable for use in a wide range of applications including:
- Flange gaskets on pipes and tanks
- Electrical and Lighting fixture seal
- Lining of pipes and vessels
- Transfer and joining sleeves
- Weatherproof flashing
- Thermal and electrical Insulation
- Insulating strip
- Isolation barriers
- Vacuum forming blankets
- Heat resistant and non-stick skirting rubber
- Dryer Fan housing seals
- High temperature loading socks
- Heat resistant expansion joints
- Variety of sealing applications
