Silicone
Silicone O-rings are made from silicone rubber, known for its flexibility, high temperature resistance, and excellent sealing properties. They are widely used in applications requiring stability in extreme temperatures and resistance to environmental factors like UV light and ozone. Silicone O-rings are also ideal for medical, food, and beverage industries due to their non-toxic nature.
