Silicone Rubber Cutting

Trade-grade cutting for silicone rubber sheets used in high-temperature, food-grade and general sealing applications. We use high-precision digital knife and CNC cutting to turn flat silicone sheets into gaskets, pads, strips and custom profiles. Flat parts only — supplied cut, kitted and ready to bolt up or bond into place.

Flat parts only — no folding Typical sheet up to 3000 × 1500 mm 1–5 days dispatch

Industries we work with for silicone rubber

We cut silicone rubber sheet for trade clients that need temperature-resistant, flexible and often food-contact-friendly gaskets and pads. Flat parts only — no moulded or extruded components in-house. Clean knife cutting provides accurate shapes and holes suited to hygienic and high-performance applications.

  • Food & Beverage Processing
    Flat gaskets, seals and pads in hygienic areas (subject to grade).
  • Pharma, Medical & Lab
    Silicone seals, pads and membranes from approved sheet grades.
  • Industrial & High-Temp Equipment
    Oven door seals, duct gaskets and heat-resistant pads.
  • Electronics & OEMs
    Environmental seals, keypads and isolation pads from silicone sheet.
  • Fabricators & Gasket Suppliers
    Complementary silicone gaskets alongside other sheet materials.

Silicone rubber thickness & hardness guide

We typically process silicone rubber sheets in the thickness and hardness ranges used for high-temperature, food-grade and general sealing applications. The table below reflects the ranges we commonly cut. Exact availability depends on your sheet spec and supplier, and can be confirmed when quoting.

Typical ranges for high-temp & food-grade silicone sheet
Silicone spec (approx.) Typical use
1–2 mm silicone, 40–60 Shore A Light-duty gaskets, membranes and cover seals.
3–5 mm silicone, 50–70 Shore A General-purpose food-grade and high-temp gaskets, seals and pads.
6–10 mm silicone, various hardnesses Heavier-duty pads, isolation elements and impact-absorbing seals.
Sponge / foam silicone sheets Compression seals, door seals and environmental gaskets (subject to spec).

*Thickness and hardness ranges above are indicative for silicone rubber gasket and sealing sheet. Our cutting beds accept sheets up to 1500 × 3000 mm. If you need specific branded grades, FDA/food-grade, platinum-cured, high-temperature or other specialised silicone compounds, mention this in your enquiry so we can confirm suitability.

Capabilities at a Glance — Silicone Rubber

Processes and Materials

  • Digital knife cutting of solid and some sponge silicone sheet (within spec)
  • Selective CNC profiling for thicker silicone sheet and pads
  • Straight cuts, curves, bolt circles, slots and custom profiles
  • Sheets up to a maximum of 1500 × 3000 mm on our beds

Typical Part Types

  • Flange & cover gaskets — high-temp & food-grade
  • Pads, strips & seals — for equipment and enclosures
  • Door & oven seals (flat) — from sheet or sponge
  • Custom silicone profiles — flat sheet only, non-moulded

We focus on flat silicone sheet cutting. Moulded seals, tubes, o-rings and complex extrusions are outside the scope of this service, but flat gaskets and pads often work alongside those products in the same system.

Accuracy

  • Knife cutting follows bolt circles and profiles closely for reliable sealing.
  • Repeatable results for gasket kits in OEM and maintenance environments.
  • Dimensional control suited to hygienic seals where alignment matters.

Finish

  • Clean cut edges when sheet grade and tooling are well matched.
  • Options for smooth edges on visible or hygiene-critical seals.
  • Kitting, bagging and labelling by part, equipment or line ID.

Sheet Size

Our digital knife and CNC beds are set up for silicone sheets up to 1500 × 3000 mm, covering typical sheet formats used in industrial and food-grade supply. Efficient nesting reduces scrap and keeps unit costs competitive for both small and large orders.

Why use our silicone rubber cutting service?

High-temp & hygiene focused

We understand the demands around temperature, cleaning and hygiene where silicone rubber is used. Our cutting approach respects those constraints and supports traceable, repeatable gasket production.

Set up for both small and ongoing runs

From one-off replacement gaskets to ongoing OEM kits, we set up projects so repeat orders are simple: call off by part number, kit ID or equipment reference.

Help preparing gasket layouts

Work from CAD, DXF, existing drawings or samples. We can check bolt circles, flange sizes and clearances, then nest parts efficiently against your silicone sheet size and grade.

Trade-ready workflow

Clear specs on silicone grade, colour, thickness, hardness and media, plus realistic lead times and consistent re-runs. We are geared to support plant engineers, OEMs, gasket suppliers and maintenance contractors.

More about silicone rubber cutting and design

Open the items below for more detail on flat silicone gasket cutting, design tips and how silicone sheet can be used effectively in sealing and isolation projects.

For silicone gaskets, confirm flange faces, bolt circles and compression requirements carefully. Allow realistic clearances for bolts and studs, ensure gasket edges are supported, and consider how compression set over time will affect seal performance. Where hygiene is critical, avoid unnecessary crevices or sharp internal corners that are hard to clean.

Silicone is often the right choice when temperature, flexibility and cleanliness matter more than abrasion or tear resistance. It performs well across a wide temperature range and can be formulated for food and pharma contact, but it is not always ideal for heavy wear or certain aggressive chemicals. Consider media, temperature and mechanical demands when specifying silicone sheet.

Silicone rubber parts are flexible and relatively robust, but can attract dust and contaminants. Clean packing, bagging and labelling by equipment or work pack helps maintain cleanliness and simplifies installation, particularly in food and hygiene-sensitive environments.

Most silicone cutting jobs dispatch in 1–5 business days once artwork, material and quantities are confirmed. Larger kits, multi-equipment campaigns and complex nesting may take longer, but we will confirm realistic timeframes before you commit.
