Additional Information
General purpose grade silicone is a versatile, cost-effective material used across a wide range of industrial and consumer applications. It offers good thermal stability, flexibility, and resistance to water, ozone, and UV radiation. Typically available in solid, liquid, or foam forms, this silicone grade is suitable for non-critical sealing, gasketing, insulating, and cushioning tasks. While it may not meet the stringent requirements of medical, aerospace, or food-grade applications, it performs reliably in many standard environments. General purpose silicone is also easy to process via extrusion, molding, or coating, making it a practical choice for everyday manufacturing and maintenance needs.
General purpose grade silicone is a type of silicone rubber that’s formulated for a wide range of standard, non-specialized applications. It’s valued for its balance of performance, affordability, and versatility. For assistance with material selection, contact ElastaPro.
