0.5mm X 8mm S70 FDA Silicone (VMQ) 70 Duro O-Ring

Metric O-Rings - Cross Section "CS" X Inside Diameter "ID"

Silicone (VMQ) Durometer 70 - Brick Red - FDA

FDA Grade Silicone compound for food & medical applications. The term silicone covers a group of materials in which vinyl-methyl-silicone (VMQ) is often the central ingredient. Silicone elastomers as a group have relatively low tensile strength, poor tear and wear resistance. Silicone Rubbers are ideal for high and low temperature applications. Electrical properties are excellent and resistance to weathering and ozone attack is outstanding. Food Quality/FDA compliant for use in the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Heat Resistance

• Up to approximately 400°F (204°C)

Cold Flexibility

• Down to approximately –75°F to –65°F (–59°C to –54°C)

Chemical Resistance Uses

• Coffee
• Beer
• Sunlight, Ozone, Oxygen, UV Light and Moisture
• Engine and transmission oil (e.g.: ASTM oil No.1)
• Animal and vegetable oil and grease
• Brake fluid (non-petroleum base)
• Fire-resistant hydraulic fluid, HFD-R and HFD-S
• High molecular weight chlorinated aromatic hydrocarbons (including flame-resistant insulators, and coolant for transformers)
• Moderate water resistance
• Diluted salt solutions, Sea Water

Not Compatible With

• Superheated water steam over 250°F (121°C)
• Automatic Transmission Fluid
• Acids and alkalis
• Low molecular weight chlorinated hydrocarbons (trichloroethylene)
• Aromatic mineral oil
• Hydrocarbon based fuels
• Aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene, toluene).
