Silicone rubber is an extraordinary material with these special characteristics and advantages:

• Extreme temperature application,-118°C to +316°C (-180°F to+600°F).
• Very good thermal resistance,Special flame retardant compounds are available.
• Excellent electric qualities,Many superior dielectric and insulation properties available in special compounds. Can be either electrically insulating or electrically conductive.
• Inert, odorless, tasteless, stainless, ideal for medical and food applications.
• Very high resistance to weathering and oxidation conditions.
• Superior resistance to many chemicals.
• High resistance to ozone,UV,radiation and corona.
• Superior water resistance and low water absorption.
• Silicone has  excellent flexibility and can be both stretched and compressed.
• Silicone comes in a wide range of hardnesses  from 3 Shore-A to 90 Shore–A.
• Silicone does not support growth of either bacteria or mould.
• Silicone is  available  in  a  wide  range  of  colors  and  a  few  more.
• Silicone maintains its mechanical properties over a wide temperature  range.
• In addition to these, silicone rubber has many other properties and applications.
