Silicone Profiles

URM offers P profiles for industrial applications. Versions with or without a hole are possible, depending on the pressure the profiles must withstand. Most of our P profiles are made from EPDM or silicone rubber. Since both are ozone and UV resistant, the extrusions can be used indoors, outdoors and in extreme weather conditions. The silicone type is even resistant to temperatures up to 250°C. Good compression set doneIndoor and outdoor applications doneExtremely durable More information P profiles also known as P strips, P seals or P sections are easily recognizable . They consist of a round top section (to ensure a good sealing performance) and a lower tail section (for a safe installation) . Our experienced team can assist you in developing your profile and choosing the most suitable rubber quality for your application. Too much compression of the P seal should be prevented. This will negatively impact the lifespan and serviceability.

Our hollow D profiles offer excellent durability and resistance, which makes them highly versatile. We offer a wide selection of standard profiles which are available for fast delivery. We can also manufacture custom profiles to your exact requirements. The hollow design is a key feature which separates our hollow silicone D profiles from the competition. The hollow center enables our profiles to offer greater rates of compression while under pressure. It also enables our profiles to easily fit into any small crevices or angles. This can greatly increase the sealing capability of our product Excellent temperature range doneGood chemical resistance doneHighly durable More information Aside from offering great compression rates, our hollow silicone D profiles are also highly resistant. They offer great chemical stability, low thermal conductivity as well as low toxicity. These features make silicone the first choice

A rubber gasket is a mechanical seal with the main objective to fill the gap between two or more mating surfaces. While under compression and providing constant pressure, any leakage is prevented. The rubber quality, or the polymer type, is of great importance to ensure proper and long lasting functioning of the seal. It is important to consider both the environmental conditions where the seal will be used and the media that it will come in contact with. URM, as your supplier, is here to guide you in gasket selection and offer advice for your application needs. Standard range available doneHigh quality rubber doneIndoor and ourdoor use More information When flexibility is high priority, natural rubber (NR) is an ideal choice. Nitrile (NBR) seals are an effective options for applications in contact with oil. For outdoor use, we recommend EPDM or chloprene (CR). In addition, we can offer superior qualities such as FKM (Viton)

URM offers a broad range of silicone grades to produce custom rubber silicone die cut and waterjet cut gaskets that meet exact customer specifications. At URM, all silicone grades are available as thin as .008 thick to 1″ thick and are offered in continuous rolls or cut to meet your precise requirements. More information All silicone grades come in a measure of hardness (durometer) as soft as 25 durometer, and as hard as 80 durometer. Standard colors include orange/red, black, gray, and white; special colors are available upon request. Industry use Silicone is particularly suitable for UV and ozone affected applications and can be used up to +230 ºC.
