Typical Properties of Style 60 Durometer Commercial Grade Silicone

Description: 60 durometer commercial grade silicone, which is designed for use in gaskets applications that do not require demanding physical properties, but where higher temperature resistance is required. 60 durometer commercial grade silicone has a service temperature of -80°F to +450°F, with the ability to handle +500°F on an intermittent basis. Style 60 durometer commercial grade silicone offers excellent UV and ozone resistance. 60 durometer commercial grade silicone is a non-toxic and chemically inert silicone material.
