Usa Industrials BULK-RS-S40-17 Silicone Rubber Sheet

Product Description

The USA INDUSTRIALS BULK-RS-S40-17 is a stock-length silicone rubber sheet measuring 36 inches wide by 36 inches long, supplied in red. With a Shore A durometer rating of 35 to 45, this sheet offers a soft-to-medium flexibility well suited to gasketing, sealing, cushioning, and vibration-dampening applications. It handles a wide service temperature range from -60 degrees F to 500 degrees F, making it appropriate for high-heat environments where standard rubber compounds would degrade. Tensile strength is rated at 650 psi. At 7.4 pounds, this is a full square-yard panel ready for cutting to job-specific dimensions.

This silicone rubber sheet is used across industrial, HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical trades wherever a compressible, heat-resistant gasket or sealing layer is needed. Common applications include custom gasket fabrication, oven and appliance seals, pipe flange pads, equipment mounts, and electrical insulation barriers. The red color aids identification in multi-material shops. Tradespeople, fabricators, and maintenance technicians typically cut this sheet to size on-site using a utility knife, die cutter, or water-jet equipment.

Key Features

• Shore A durometer of 35 to 45 provides soft-to-medium flexibility for conformable sealing
• Service temperature range of -60 degrees F to 500 degrees F suits high-heat and cold environments
• 650 psi tensile strength supports durable gasket and cushioning use
• Full 36 x 36 inch panel allows on-site cutting to custom dimensions
• Red color aids material identification in multi-material fabrication settings
• Silicone compound resists ozone, UV, and many chemicals encountered in trade applications

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose stock-length silicone rubber sheeting for custom gasket fabrication, sealing, and cushioning applications across HVAC, industrial, and mechanical service environments.

Installation Notes

Cut to required shape and size using a sharp utility knife, gasket punch set, or die-cutting equipment before installation. Ensure mating surfaces are clean and free of old gasket material, oil, and debris prior to fitting the cut piece. Follow applicable OSHA and equipment manufacturer guidelines when working near heat sources or pressurized systems. No adhesive bonding is required for compression-style gasket applications, but contact cement rated for silicone substrates may be used where a fixed installation is needed.
