FDA Grade Red Silicone Sheet & Uncured Compound

ElastaPro’s FDA grade red silicone is designed for food contact applications and meets the requirements of 21 CFR 177.2600. Choose solid silicone sheet or uncured compound in durometers ranging from 30 to 80 (Shore A). This FDA food grade silicone is odorless, tasteless, and excellent for seals and gaskets because it’s made with high-quality raw materials.

In food processing and industrial bakeries, red/orange silicone is the industry standard for high-temperature applications. It provides high visibility against stainless steel equipment while signaling to maintenance teams that the gasket is rated for extreme thermal cycles.

FDA Grade Red Silicone Sheet

FDA grade red silicone sheet is available in thicknesses from .010” to .500” and in widths up to 60”. This FDA approved silicone arrives ready for die cutting and supports flash cutting, water jet cutting, and other fabrication methods. For higher-volume applications, ElastaPro supplies silicone rolls made of FDA grade red silicone.

FDA Grade Red Silicone Compound

FDA grade red silicone compound is catalyzed and arrives ready for curing.  This food grade silicone supports molding, calendering, and extrusion. Materials are supplied rolled up off the mill or in sheet form that’s approximately .250″ thick with a poly liner. 

Like our silicone sheeting, our FDA grade red silicone compound has low minimum order quantities (MOQs).

Material Properties

ElastaPro’s materials are available in 30, 35, 40, 50, 60, 70, and 80 durometers and can withstand a wide temperature range without losing elasticity. The table below describes some of its material properties and contains links to technical data sheets where you can find more information.
