AMS3303 Silicone
AMS3303 silicone meets an AMS standard for a general-purpose silicone rubber with a Shore A hardness of 60 durometer. AMS 3303 covers the requirements for silicone rubber in the form of sheets, strips, tubing, extrusions, and molded shapes that are suitable for use from -65°F to 400°F (-54°C to 205°C) and are resistant to weathering and petroleum-based lubricating oils.
AMS3303 Silicone Properties
Key characteristics of AMS3303 silicone:
- Material: Solid silicone (MQ/VMQ) rubber.
- Hardness: 60 durometer (a range of 55-65 durometer is covered).
- Forms: Supplied as sheets, strips, tubing, extrusions, or molded shapes.
- Temperature Range: Effective in temperatures from -65°F to 400°F (-54°C to 205°C).
- Resistances: Good resistance to heat, weathering, ozone, and petroleum-based lubricating oils.
- Limitations: Not suitable for contact with gasoline or aromatic fuels due to potential swelling. Also has poor abrasion resistance and low strength.
