MEDICAL SEALS
Medical seals and gaskets are an important part of most medical devices. Used across both Pharmaceutical and Biomedical industries, there are critical factors that BS Elastomers’ rubber components have to adhere to which are mechanical strength, hygiene and chemical resistance.
Rubber Components for Medical Applications
Rubber used in medical-grade applications must have strong chemical resistance, exceptional temperatures, strong compatibility with the human body, good electrical and mechanical properties and a natural clarity.
Products such as the ones listed below, must be produced in a contamination-free environment:
- Wire Seals
- Fluid Seals
- Diaphragms
- Gaskets
- Seats
- Strain Reliefs
- Extrusions
- Catheters
Common medical components which are used:
- O-rings
- Gaskets
