Product Features
1. Functions
1)Sealing Connection:It’s installed at the pipeline interfaces of medical devices. Things like ventilator pipelines and infusion pump pipelines. It uses the elasticity of silicone and the structure of the sealing lip. These help fill gaps—between pipelines and devices, and between pipelines themselves. This stops gases or liquids from leaking. For example, it stops gases like oxygen or air (delivered by ventilators) from leaking. It also stops liquids like medical fluids (transported by infusion pumps) from leaking. This makes sure medical fluids are delivered precisely. It avoids affecting treatment outcomes. Like if a ventilator leaks air, the patient might not get enough oxygen. Or if an infusion tube leaks fluid, the drug dosage might be wrong. Its sealing reliability meets the strict standards of Medical Device Seals and Sterile Medical Seals for critical medical fluid systems.
2)Buffering and Adaptation:Silicone is flexible. This flexibility can buffer slight vibrations and displacements. These happen when pipelines are being installed or used. It also fits dimensional changes of different interfaces. These changes come from manufacturing tolerances, thermal expansion, and contraction. Even with these changes, it keeps sealing stably. Also, it reduces wear. This wear would happen if pipelines and instrument interfaces made hard contact. This makes the equipment last longer. This buffering performance helps with the functional advantages of Universal Gaskets. It also matches the durability requirements of Medical Equipment Basics.
2. Required Characteristics
1)Biocompatibility:It touches medical fluids directly or indirectly. Things like medical liquids and breathing gases. So it must be made of Medical Grade Silicone Seals material. This material is non-toxic and won’t cause allergies. It also won’t release harmful substances that could contaminate fluids. This makes sure patients are safe. This is a basic requirement for all Silicone Medical Components and Medical Seals that touch biological fluids.
2)High Elasticity and Toughness:It faces frequent external forces. Like when pipelines are inserted or removed, or when pressure changes. So the silicone must have excellent elasticity. It can bounce back quickly after being deformed. It also needs high toughness. Even after long-term use and repeated deformation, it won’t crack or get damaged. It keeps sealing stably. This mechanical resilience is as good as that of high-quality medical silicone seal. It meets the durability standards of Medical Device Seals in high-frequency use scenarios.
3)Precise Adaptability:It must have high dimensional accuracy. It fits pipeline interfaces tightly. Structures like tenons and grooves can connect precisely. This makes sure it doesn’t loosen or move after installation. So it can work with pipelines of different brands and models. Or it can fit specific equipment. This dimensional precision matches the assembly requirements of General Medical Sealing and Basic Components.
4)Environmental Resistance:It must stand common conditions in medical environments. Like high-temperature sterilization—things like moist heat sterilization and dry heat sterilization. It won’t change shape or get old because of high temperatures. It also resists corrosion from disinfectants. Things like alcohol and chlorine-containing disinfectants. It has strong chemical stability. Even after touching disinfectants for a long time, it keeps working the same way. This stability meets the disinfection adaptability requirements of Sterile Medical Seals and Medical Vial Cap Seals.
5)Low Adsorption:It shouldn’t absorb much of certain substances. Like medical fluids and biological proteins. This stops pipeline blockage and cross-contamination. Also, after cleaning, it leaves very little residue. This lets it be disinfected and used many times. At the same time, it keeps pipelines clear and fluids pure. This low-adsorption property meets the hygiene standards of Silicone Medical Components. It also supports the long-term reliability of medical fluid transmission systems.
