Silicone O-Rings | 70 Durometer - Metal Detectable

Written by APG | Feb 1, 2023 9:01:09 PM

Metal detectable silicone O-Rings are a special type of o-ring that have been specifically designed for use in the food processing and pharmaceutical industries. These O-rings are made from silicone rubber, but they have been formulated with metal particles that can be easily detected by metal detection equipment. This is an important feature in these industries, as it allows for quick and easy detection of any potential contaminants that may have entered the production line. These O-rings are ideal for use in industries where strict sanitation standards are required, as they provide an extra level of safety and security. Additionally, this material is metal detectable and can be detected through an X-Ray.
