Solid Silicone Rubber Seals
Silicone Seals – a cornerstone of modern sealing technology. Silicone seals are designed to provide exceptional performance across various industries and applications, and our commitment to quality and innovation ensures that our Silicone Seals offer unmatched sealing effectiveness and reliability. A silicone seal acts as a barrier to prevent leaks and the ingress of gases or liquids in demanding applications, making it ideal for critical sealing needs.
- Premium Silicone Material: Our Silicone Seals are expertly crafted using high-quality silicone rubber, known for its exceptional temperature resistance, flexibility, and chemical stability. This material forms the basis for seals that perform consistently under diverse conditions.
- Temperature Resilience: Silicone’s inherent temperature resistance makes our seals suitable for a wide range of temperatures, from extreme cold to high heat. This resilience ensures that the seals maintain their sealing effectiveness across varying operational environments, including both hot and low temperatures.
- Engineered for versatility, our Silicone Seals excel in sealing applications where protection against moisture, dust, noise, gases, and other environmental factors is essential. Their wide-ranging adaptability makes them valuable across industries.
- Excellent Compression Set Resistance: Our Silicone Seals exhibit superior compression set resistance, retaining their original shape and sealing effectiveness even after compression, ensuring long-lasting performance.
- Chemical Compatibility: Silicone’s resistance to a wide range of chemicals and solvents enhances the reliability of our seals in industries that handle aggressive fluids and substances.
- At Advanced Seals and Gaskets, we recognise that each industry has unique sealing requirements. Our Silicone Seals can be customised in terms of size, shape, form, grade, colour, and specifications to meet the precise needs of your applications. Customers can specify the form, grade, colour, and hardness of the seals to create tailored solutions for their environment and application.
- The design of our Silicone Seals ensures easy installation, streamlining assembly, replacement, and maintenance procedures, and minimising downtime.
Silicone Rubber Seals are manufactured in various product formats, including:
- Silicone Rubber Seals
- Silicone Rubber Gaskets
- Silicone Rubber Strip
- Silicone Rubber Washers
- Silicone Rubber Pads
- Silicone Rubber Extrusions
- Silicone Rubber Mouldings
Seals manufactured from silicone rubber are widely used in medical, pharmaceutical, and healthcare industries due to their biocompatibility and sterilisation stability.
Solid Silicone rubber is a complex but flexible material that can be supplied in a range of hardnesses from 40º shore through to 60º shore. In contrast, silicone sponge is a relatively soft, closed-cell, flexible product with a skin finish on one or both sides and can be supplied in a wide range of densities from 200kg to 500kg. Closed-cell sponge silicone rubber is ideal for watertight seals due to its low water absorption and customizable densities. Silicone rubber compounds offer unique properties compared to other rubber compounds, such as superior resistance to high and low temperatures, ozone, and weathering.
Silicone Rubber Seals have many attributes, including:
- UV resistant
- Ozone resistant
- +200ºc working temperature
- Available in flame-retardant grade
- Available in food quality grade
- Available in FDA-approved and food-safe grades, suitable for contact with food and regulated environments
- Available in different grades and colours, including black, to suit specific application requirements
- Electronics and Appliances: Silicone Seals protect sensitive components in electronic enclosures and appliances by guarding against moisture, dust, and contaminants.
- These seals are essential for sealing various automotive components, including windows, doors, trunks, and engine compartments, thereby reducing noise and improving climate control.
- Medical Equipment: Silicone Seals are used in medical devices and equipment, providing reliable sealing in sterile environments.
- Food and Beverage Industry: These seals ensure airtight, hygienic seals for food processing and packaging equipment.
- Silicone Seals contribute to energy-efficient sealing in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems, maintaining optimal performance.
Silicone rubber seals are also used in the rail and transportation industries, where their flame-retardant features and compliance with safety standards are critical for safety and performance.

Metal Detectable Options
Metal detectable silicone rubber seals offer an advanced solution for industries where product safety and contamination control are critical. These specialised silicone rubber seals are engineered with metal-detectable compounds, enabling them to be easily identified by standard metal-detection systems. This feature is particularly valuable in the food and pharmaceutical industries, where even the slightest risk of contamination must be eliminated to ensure product integrity and consumer safety.
Manufactured from high-quality silicone rubber, these seals retain all the exceptional properties of standard silicone rubber, including good resistance to extreme temperatures, ozone, UV, weathering, and a wide range of chemicals. This makes them suitable for demanding applications where durability and reliability are essential. Metal-detectable silicone rubber seals are available in a variety of forms, including gaskets, extrusions, strips, and custom profiles, ensuring a perfect fit for any sealing requirement.
Advanced Seals and Gaskets (ASG) can provide metal detectable silicone rubber seals in a range of shore hardnesses, thicknesses, and colours to suit specific application needs. These seals are designed to meet the rigorous standards of the food and pharmaceutical industries, helping to minimise the risk of contamination and maintain the highest levels of quality control. By choosing metal-detectable silicone rubber seals, manufacturers can enhance their safety protocols and protect both their products and their reputations.
