For the most demanding sealing applications requiring exceptional performance across extreme temperatures, superior UV and ozone resistance, or inert properties, Boss Polymer’s Silicone P-shaped seal profiles (also referred to as ‘Silicone P profile seals’ or ‘Silicone P section seals’) are the ideal solution. We expertly manufacture a broad range of Silicone P seals, tailored to meet precise industry standards, including those for food-grade, medical, and high-purity environments.
Boss Polymer is a highly trusted company with a strong reputation in the marketplace and has been supplying Silicone P seals to various industries for thirty-five years. We have the capability to provide the highest quality silicone P seals.
Choose from Standard Dies or Custom Silicone Seals
We offer a wide range of standard dies for Silicone P seals or, alternatively, our in-house engineers can custom build a silicone seal to meet your specific requirements.
Offering a Wide Range of Silicone P Seals
Boss Polymer also offers a range of silicone rubber profiles. Silicone has an extremely high temperature rating and can be food or medical grade. Silicone P seals are used for ovens, kilns, incubators, and a variety of electrical enclosures. Temperature for silicone P seals ranges from -40°C up to +300°C.
P and J silicone seal profiles are usually designed with a hollow bulb in the centre, which makes them more compressible than standard solid silicone seals. They are firmer and hardier than standard sponge silicone shapes. The flange of the silicone P seal can be positioned along the edge of a door to cover gaps and block dust, noise, and vibration. The flange can also be used to fix the silicone seal to a door. Silicone P seals can be supplied in lengths or continuous coils.
Additional features of our Silicone P Seals include:
- Functions reliably from approximately -60°C to +230°C (and even higher with special formulations).
- Does not degrade or crack when exposed to sunlight or outdoor elements, making it ideal for exterior applications.
- Maintains integrity in harsh outdoor conditions.
- Odourless, tasteless, and non-toxic, making it suitable for food contact (FDA-compliant grades available) and medical applications.
- Ideal for sensitive environments.
- Withstands repeated flexing and compression cycles without permanent deformation.
- Prevents heat loss
- Prevents leakage of gases and fluids
- Good electrical insulation properties (can also be made conductive).
- Repels water.
Silicone P Seal Applications
Boss Polymer designs and manufactures a versatile range of Silicone P seals and profiles for critical sealing applications where extreme conditions, high purity, or long-term reliability are paramount. Due to its unique properties, Silicone P seals are ideally suited for:
- Oven and Furnace Seals: Withstanding high temperatures in commercial and industrial ovens.
- Freezer and Cold Room Seals: Maintaining flexibility and sealing integrity at sub-zero temperatures.
- Medical Equipment and Devices: Biocompatibility and sterilisation compatibility.
- Food Processing and Beverage Dispensing Equipment: Certified grades for hygiene.
- Outdoor Lighting and Electrical Enclosures: Superior UV and ozone resistance for prolonged outdoor exposure.
- HVAC and Cleanroom Environments: Maintaining air quality and preventing particulate contamination.
- Aerospace and Automotive: Where temperature extremes and fluid resistance (some types) are critical.
- Pharmaceutical Manufacturing: Ensuring sterile and sealed environments.
- Sound and Vibration Dampening in High-Temperature Settings: Where other elastomers would degrade.
