Silicone Food Grade O-Ring 60x15mm
$1.36
Description
The Silicone O-Ring 0060-15 is engineered to deliver exceptional sealing performance across diverse industrial and commercial applications. Crafted from premium food-grade silicone material, this versatile ring combines durability with flexibility to withstand extreme temperatures (-50°C to +250°C) while maintaining its shape under constant pressure. Designed with precise dimensions (ID x OD x Thickness: 15mm x 24mm x 4mm), it offers reliable compression resistance for long-term use in demanding environments.
Ideal for both high-pressure systems and everyday sealing needs, this O-Ring finds application in automotive engine components where oil resistance is critical, industrial machinery requiring vibration dampening seals, and food processing equipment needing non-toxic solutions. Its smooth surface ensures easy installation without compromising on tightness, making it equally suitable for home DIY projects like water filtration systems or medical device prototypes where hygiene standards are paramount.
Key Advantages:
– Temperature Resilience: Performs consistently in extreme heat or cold without hardening or deforming
– Chemical Inertness: Resists oils, solvents, and corrosive substances better than rubber alternatives
– Elastic Memory: Maintains shape after repeated compression cycles
– Non-Toxic & FDA Compliant: Safe for food-grade applications
– Cost Efficiency: Outlasts standard rubber seals by up to 3x longer

Engineers and technicians trust this O-Ring for its ability to create leak-proof seals in pumps and valves while home users appreciate its effortless application in custom projects needing durable gaskets. Unlike rigid metal gaskets that crack under thermal stress or traditional rubber seals that degrade over time, this silicone solution provides consistent performance across multiple cycles without losing elasticity. Perfect for environments where safety standards are strict yet operational demands are intense—this compact ring delivers unmatched reliability whether securing hydraulic connections in manufacturing plants or maintaining sterile conditions in laboratory equipment.
