What Are High-Temperature Silicone Extrusions? High-temperature silicone extrusions are engineered components designed to withstand extreme temperatures while providing unparalleled strength, durability, and flexibility. These temperature-resistant parts are custom-made to order, with a variety of options available depending on the application. In addition to their resistance to high temperatures, these extrusions also offer superior chemical compatibility and insulation properties.
Benefits and Features of High-Temperature Silicone Extrusions High-temperature silicone extrusions offer a variety of benefits and features that make them ideal for use in extreme conditions. These include excellent flame retardancy, resistance to moisture, and aging, making them ideal for areas where traditional materials would quickly deteriorate. Additionally, their resistance to UV-induced damage means they are ideal for outdoor applications. Furthermore, the flexible nature of these extrusions offers greater design options than more rigid materials such as metal or plastic could provide.
Biocompatibility. Generally speaking, silicone is non-toxic and non-allergenic. This property makes it ideal for use in medical devices, as contact with human skin or tissue usually does not cause adverse reactions.
Good chemical resistance. Silicone is an inert material that does not react with most chemicals, making it easy to clean and well-suited for selected process applications. However, some concentrated acids may break down silica gel, so it is important to check the compatibility of the chosen material with the chemicals for the specific application.
Excellent elastic memory. After exposure to high pressure or compressive forces, organosilicon constantly strives to regain its original shape.
High dielectric strength. The extruded silicone material is a good electrical insulator that does not decompose or conduct electricity in constant contact with the current.
Transparency and translucency. Extruded silicone is relatively transparent, which makes it easy to color in applications with specific tissue or aesthetic needs. It also makes it ideal for making transparent tubing.
High-temperature resistance. The most common silicone extrusions can withstand temperatures up to 500°F.
Applications of High-Temperature Silicone Extrusions High-temperature silicone extrusions are regularly used in a range of applications, including construction, aerospace, and automotive engineering. Examples include seals and gaskets around doors and windows, insulation plates for aircraft engines, and curtainwall structures. Additionally, the flexibility of these extrusions makes them well-suited for flexible tubing applications such as Air-Conditioning systems or other fluid transport networks.

Critical Components of High-Temperature Silicone Extrusions
High-temperature silicone extrusions are fundamentally composed of different elements. The core provides the main reinforcement and flexibility while the jacket offers protection and insulation, as well as adding to the overall strength of the product. Additionally, some extrusions also come with additional components depending on the application such as a cover for extra abrasion resistance or an adhesive layer for better fixing.
