Create round-profile O-rings for sealing applications near ovens and other hot areas in your food plant. Made from silicone, this cord stock holds up to high heat, and won’t degrade from water, oil, and detergents. It also contains a metal additive that will set off metal detectors if it falls into your line, so contaminated food doesn’t leave your facility. The red color is easy to spot, so you can quickly find and remove any pieces from your line. This cord stock helps you comply with Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) programs. It’s FDA compliant, so it’s safe for direct contact with food. It also meets ASTM D2000, which is a performance standard for rubber used in automotive applications.

With chemical and metal additives that are picked up by X-ray machines and metal detectors, these sealants are designed to help you comply with Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) programs in food-processing facilities. Their blue color means they’re also easily spotted and removed if a piece falls into your line. They’re unpalatable to rodents, so they’re often used to seal entry points such as windows, doors, and wall panels to keep out pests.

Also known as neutral cure, these sealants are noncorrosive and won't discolor copper, brass, or concrete. They’re structural sealants, meaning they combine excellent sealing properties and high flexibility with the mechanical strength of an adhesive—they can even join dissimilar materials. Made of silicone, their resistance to UV light, moisture, and both high and low temperatures makes them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. These sealants are room-temperature vulcanizing (RTV), so they’ll begin to cure as soon as they’re exposed to air. They’re non-sagging and won’t drip from vertical or overhead surfaces.

Elongation and joint compression/expansion tolerance indicate flexibility—the higher the values, the more joint movement a sealant can sustain.
