BISCO® HT-6000 Series Performance Solid Silicones
Rogers BISCO HT-6000 series of performance solid silicones offer enhanced sealing capabilities for medical and industrial appliance applications.
The BISCO HT-6000 series of performance solid silicones are ideal for high-demand gasketing applications. They provide a low compression set (<5%), high tear strength, resistance to fluids, and extremely tight thickness tolerances.
BISCO® HT-6210 extra soft silicone material is part of the performance grade solid silicone series. The material’s low Shore OO durometer, high tear strength, and extremely tight thickness tolerances offer added benefits for sealing.
Features
- Provides low closure force
- Bridges the gap between foams and high durometer solids
- Available thicknesses from 0.010 to 0.125 in.
- Durometer of 10 ± 5 Shore A
- Tensile strength of 250 to 1000 PSI
- Elongation of 175 to 650%
- Tear resistance of 25-125 PPI
Benefits
- Wide range of fabrications to suit various sealing and gasketing needs
- Resistant to extreme temperatures, tear, and most fluids
- Products offer specific characteristics, such as fire protection and transparency, to solve tough design issues
