Typical Properties of Style AG5008 50 Durometer Translucent Grade Silicone

Description: Style AG5008 is a 50 durometer translucent grade silicone gasketing material designed for use in a wide variety of gasketing applications. This low volatile material is peroxide free and takes a low compression set. 50 durometer translucent grade silicone is manufactured with FDA approved ingredients listed in CFR 117.2600, an FDA regulation which deals with rubber articles intended for repeated use in contact with food. 50 durometer translucent grade silicone provides excellent UV and ozone resistance and is non-toxic. Style AG5008 offers extreme high and low temperature resistance, with a service temperature of -80°F to +450°F, and has the ability to withstand +500°F on an intermittent basis. Commonly used in applications where food is present, a unique feature of Style AG5008 50 durometer translucent grade silicone is that it is non-yellowing, which means the material will not discolor over time.

Atlantic Gasket’s translucent grade silicone gasketing material is also available in 60 durometer (AG6008) and in 70 Durometer (AG7008). Additional durometers can be formulated upon request. 50 durometer translucent grade silicone can be converted into rolls ranging from as narrow as 1/4" wide, up to 36" in width. Atlantic Gasket can supply 50 durometer translucent grade silicone without adhesive or choose from either our standard acrylic adhesive or our high-temperature acrylic adhesive. AG5008 can be manufactured to standard and custom thicknesses. Atlantic Gasket has the ability to fabricate 50 durometer translucent grade silicone by die-cutting or waterjet cutting to meet your requirements and can provide support from the design stage through the production phase.
