Typical Properties of Style AGFDA50T 50 Durometer FDA Translucent Silicone Rubber

AGFDA50T is a 50 durometer FDA translucent silicone rubber which is designed for gasket applications requiring a low compression set and resistance to extreme temperatures. This translucent silicone meets the 21 CFR 177.2600 specification and is Food and Drug Administration (FDA) compliant. It is also Sanitary Standard 3A-18-03 Class 1 compliant for food and dairy. Atlantic Gasket’s AGFDA50T endures a temperature range of -76°F (-60°C) to 450°F (232°C), uses FDA-approved ingredients, is non-toxic, and also has excellent resistance to oxidation, UV, ozone, and corona discharge/cosmic radiation.

AGFDA50T FDA translucent silicone rubber, offered by Atlantic Gasket, comes in a variety of durometers, thicknesses, colors, and widths. This silicone is 50 durometer but is also available at 40 durometer (AGFDA40T), 60 durometer (AGFDA60T), and 70 durometer (AGFDA70T), along with widths of up to 70” and thicknesses from .010” to 1”. AGFDA50T has the ability to have a pressure sensitive adhesive laminated to this silicone rubber. Atlantic Gasket has the ability to slit AGFDA50T to widths as narrow as ¼” or as wide as 36”, 48” – 70”. The FDA translucent 50 durometer silicone rubber can be cut to size for custom parts either using our high-speed die-cutting process or our high-precision waterjet-cutting machine for production quantities and/or prototype requirements.
