FDA Compliant Silicone Gaskets
F910 FDA compliant silicone gaskets are the ideal high performance, high pressure gasketing material for use with food. It can also be used with beverage and pharmaceutical applications, as well as operations which require a clean gasket product. F910 gasketing is cleared under the United States Food and Drug Administration for use as a gasket in direct contact with food. As well as being FDA and USDA-compliant,
F910 has unique sealability, compressibility, and recovery properties and is resistant to a broad range of chemicals. Even under maximum loads and pressures, F910 minimizes cold flow and creep relaxation.
