Silicon U Type Gaskets
At MVC Polymers, a leading manufacturer in Bangalore, we specialize in producing high-quality Silicone U-Type Gaskets. These versatile, U-shaped sealing profiles are engineered to provide exceptional sealing and cushioning solutions for channels, grooves, and edges in a wide range of industrial, pharmaceutical, food, and high-temperature applications. Our silicone U-type gaskets are meticulously manufactured to ensure durable, compliant, and consistent performance, even in challenging environments
Customizable U-Profile: The U-shape allows for easy compression and creates a tight seal around a substrate. The dimensions (leg length, base width, wall thickness) are highly customizable to fit specific channels, flanges, or edges.
Exceptional Temperature Resistance: Performs reliably across an extremely broad temperature range, typically from very low (e.g., -60°C) to very high (e.g., +200°C continuous). This makes them ideal for oven seals, freezer doors, thermal insulation, and other high-temperature applications.
High Purity & Biocompatibility: Many grades are non-toxic, non-leaching, odorless, and tasteless, complying with stringent standards like FDA 21 CFR 177.2600, USP Class VI, and Ph. Eur. This makes them ideal for direct contact with food, beverages, and medical/pharmaceutical products, preventing contamination.
Excellent Compression Set Resistance: Maintains its elastic memory and sealing force over prolonged periods of compression, even after numerous thermal cycles. This ensures long-term sealing integrity without flattening out, reducing the need for frequent replacements.
Superior UV, Ozone, & Weathering Resistance: Highly stable and resistant to degradation from sunlight, ozone, and general outdoor exposure. It won't crack, harden, or become brittle over time, ensuring long-term performance in outdoor or exposed conditions.
Good Chemical Resistance: Offers resistance to a wide range of chemicals, including hot water, steam, animal and vegetable oils, alcohols, and some dilute acids and alkalis. (Note: Not recommended for strong solvents or concentrated acids/alkalis.)
Flexibility & Conformability: Remains highly flexible across its entire temperature range, allowing it to conform easily to irregular surfaces and absorb vibrations effectively, ensuring a tight seal even with minor surface imperfections.
Ease of Installation: The U-profile often allows for a simple push-fit installation onto edges or into grooves, speeding up assembly.
