Silicone Gasket in nitrile compound
Use when the brief is oil or fuel adjacent and the buyer wants a nitrile answer next to a silicone answer. Shore A and medium stay questions.
Independent sourcing desk · US buyers
silicone gasket
Silicone Gasket Sourcing is not a mill, warehouse or licensed sales office. The desk turns a silicone gasket purchasing brief into a request several plants can quote on the same compound, inner and outer diameter or drawing, quantity and destination. No stock list is published here. Every rating, certificate, lead time and price remains a supplier answer.
What separates this family from a neighbouring search is the form: a cut or molded silicone gasket, not a tube of RTV sealer. The buyer still decides compound, Shore A hardness the supplier must confirm, and whether a drawing revision or a standard size reference is the identifier. We compare total procurement cost on the same packing and Incoterms—not a claimed saving against an unnamed market.
Four axes before anyone prices silicone gasket
The configurator on this page is a request preview, not a CAD library we own. Factories still confirm Shore A hardness, compression set (%) under ASTM D395, and service temperature in °F or °C against the quoted lot. Leave an axis blank and a salesperson will silently pick a catalogue default.
- 1FormDie-cut sheet, molded ring, or drawing-based part—name one form per line.
- 2CompoundSilicone, EPDM, FKM or nitrile. Do not treat a consumer RTV search as the same goods.
- 3SizeInner and outer diameter together, or a drawing revision, plus thickness in inches or millimetres.
- 4EvidenceNamed ASTM method, food-contact file or dimensional report that must travel with the lot—not a company brochure.
What still belongs to the buyer
These columns list questions, not published hardness, pressure or temperature figures for this desk. A factory catalogue snippet is that factory’s claim for that line. Silicone versus FKM is a purchase check, not a performance guarantee from this site.
| Axis | Silicone compound line | FKM compound line |
|---|---|---|
| Typical conversation window | Buyers often ask about −60 to +230 °C; the factory must confirm the quoted lot | Buyers often ask about oils and fuels to about 200 °C; the factory must confirm the quoted lot |
| Shore A hardness | Buyer states the target; supplier confirms the value and the method | Buyer states the target; supplier confirms the value and the method |
| Medium | Air, water, food-adjacent after qualification | Hydrocarbons and many solvents where silicone swells |
| Documents | Named ASTM method; FDA 21 CFR 177 only if food-contact is in the brief | Named ASTM method; plant ISO 9001 is not a lot test |
| What this desk does not print | A fixed Shore A, thickness or price for any option | A fixed Shore A, thickness or price for any option |
Inquiry forms in this family
Five labels a buyer can point at. Clicking opens the same inquiry modal. These are not stocked SKUs and not a price card.
Silicone Gasket in FKM compound
Use when hydrocarbons or solvents are named. This is a neighbouring elastomer, not an upgrade this desk can certify.
Silicone Gasket in silicone compound
The core silicone gasket line. Temperature, Shore A and food-contact files stay with the quoting plant.
Silicone Gasket in EPDM compound
Use when weather, steam or water is the named medium. Ozone and UV resistance are factory claims, not this desk’s badge.
Drawing-based Silicone Gasket inquiry option
When ID and OD are not enough. Name the revision in the requirements box. There is no file upload on this form.
How a comparable request is kept on one line
Same wording
If two plants hear different leftover strings and fill the gaps, the quotes will not sit on one row.
Shore A as a question
Hardness is a supplier confirmation. This desk does not reprint a durometer as if it were stock.
ID and OD together
A ring without both diameters is a number without a part. A drawing revision can replace them.
Documents on the line
REACH, RoHS or FDA 21 CFR 177 language on letterhead is not evidence for the quoted thickness.
One Incoterm
A cheaper-looking unit number on a different Incoterm is a different deal, not a percentage saving.
No tube sealer
Scope is 硅胶垫片, not gasket maker or silicone gasket sealer in a cartridge. Those searches are translated, not stocked.
Files to request, not badges we wear
Silicone Gasket Sourcing does not issue material certificates. Eligibility for FREE sourcing support (up to 3%) applies to qualified business buyers and is confirmed after we review product, quantity, destination, and sourcing requirements.
-
REACH SVHC
Ask for a statement that names the quoted silicone gasket grade, not the trading company.
-
RoHS
Restricted-substance file for the quoted color and compound. A plant brochure is not that file.
-
FDA 21 CFR 177
Only if food-contact is in the brief. Qualification stays with the buyer and the quoting plant.
-
ASTM D2000
Call out the line and suffix the factory must confirm. This desk does not assign a callout.
-
ISO 9001
A plant system card. It does not replace a lot-level dimensional report or compression-set result.

Missing fields stay visible. We will not invent a Shore A, a service temperature or a destination to make the form look complete.
