Silicones are high-performance materials that offer outstanding chemical and thermal resistance, very good overall mechanical properties and excellent compression set and tensile set.

Hoses and profiles made from ELASTOSIL^®are extremely flexible at low temperatures and undergo hardly any change of properties at all over a wide range of temperatures – this sets them apart from other flexible extrudates. ELASTOSIL^®silicones are easy to process and cure rapidly. They therefore offer a balance set of mechanical properties.
