Achieve FDA‑Compliant Medical Grade Silicone in 30 Days—Free Sample Available

Precise, biocompatible silicone components for medical devices, wearables, and OEM/ODM projects.

Why Your Current Silicone Supplier May Be Holding You Back

1. High Price, Low ROI – 57% of purchasing managers report that silicone costs exceed budget by >15% (source: Grand View Research, 2024).

2. Inconsistent Quality – Variations in Shore A hardness and tensile strength lead to product failures in critical medical applications.

3. Slow Delivery & Expensive Shipping – Overseas lead times of 45‑60 days add hidden costs and jeopardize time‑to‑market.

4. Unclear Certification – Without ISO 9001, CE, or FDA‑clearance documentation, regulatory approval stalls.

5. Limited Customization – One‑size‑fits‑all silicone grades cannot meet specific biocompatibility or temperature‑range requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

What defines “medical grade silicone”?

Medical grade silicone meets stringent biocompatibility (USP Class VI, ISO 10993‑1), purity (≤ 0.1 % extractables), and regulatory certifications (FDA, CE, ISO 9001). It also exhibits consistent mechanical and thermal properties across batches.

Silicone Parts Factory

Can you customize hardness and durometer?

Yes. Our R&D team can formulate LSR from Shore A 30 up to 80, with ±2 % tolerance, based on your design CAD data and functional testing.

What is the typical lead time for a 10 k‑unit order?

Standard production: 3 weeks after artwork approval. For urgent projects we offer a 10‑day fast‑track service (subject to mold availability).

Do you provide ISO 13485 or FDA 510(k) support?

Our quality system is ISO 13485‑aligned; we supply full documentation packages, including material safety data sheets, test reports, and design‑verification files for 510(k) submissions.

How do you ensure low outgassing for aerospace‑grade medical devices?

We employ vacuum‑assisted molding and conduct ASTM E1550 outgassing tests on every batch, guaranteeing ≤ 0.5 % outgassing at 200 °C.
