The Gasket Body is the main structural element of a high-precision silicone gasket. It provides the sealing function by being compressed between mating surfaces, preventing fluid or gas leakage.
Common materials include silicone rubber, fluorosilicone, and high-performance silicone compounds. The specific material choice depends on the application's temperature, chemical, and pressure requirements.
The nominal thickness is typically 1.5–3.0 mm, and hardness ranges from 50 to 70 Shore A. These values are reference ranges and must be confirmed for the specific model.
You should check the operating temperature, pressure, chemical compatibility, and dimensional tolerances against your requirements. Always consult the legal manufacturer or supplier for model-specific data and standards compliance.
