This is a Silicone hole plugs for medical devices. It’s a practical part of Orthopedic and Nursing Operation Accessories and Ortho Care Components.The Silicone hole plugs for medical devices has two main parts. One part is a circular plug cover with a flat surface. This cover goes over the outside of the screw hole. It does two things: it seals the hole and makes the equipment look nicer. The other part is a cylindrical plug body. This plug body is connected to the plug cover. The inner diameter of the cylindrical plug body fits the screw hole. So it can fit tightly into the screw hole and work as a seal.It’s made of materials that meet medical standards. It meets the basic performance standards of medical silicone seal. It gives reliable protection to the stable operation of medical equipment.
Product Features
1. Functions
1)Sealing and Protection:Its core function is to seal the screw hole. It stops external impurities—like dust, microorganisms, and liquids—from getting into the equipment interior. This avoids problems. Like the precision components inside the equipment getting dirty or corroded. It makes sure the medical equipment works normally and lasts a long time. For example, on some medical testing instruments and surgical instruments, it stops pollutants from getting in. This keeps test results accurate and the instrument working well. Its protective effect is the same as the barrier function of Medical Device Seals and Sterile Medical Seals. It also meets the hygiene requirements of Orthopedic Sealing Parts.
2)Loosening Prevention:It can help fix screws to some degree. It reduces screw loosening caused by things like vibration or external force. This is especially useful for some medical equipment. Like equipment that needs to be moved often or is easy to vibrate. It keeps the equipment’s structure stable. This functional advantage helps meet the stability requirements of Surgical Instrument Seals in dynamic working scenarios.
3)Aesthetics and Tidiness:Covering the screw hole makes the medical equipment look cleaner and nicer. It meets the medical industry’s high requirements for equipment appearance—both in cleanliness and how it looks. At the same time, it makes cleaning and maintenance easier. It reduces hard-to-clean spots. This design matches the usability standards of Nursing Equipment Gaskets and other medical accessories.
2. Required Characteristics
1)Excellent Sealing Performance:The material is soft and has a certain amount of elasticity. This lets it fit tightly with the screw hole. It forms a reliable sealed environment. Even in different environmental conditions—like humid or dusty places—it can stop impurities from getting in effectively. This sealing reliability meets the strict standards of Medical Grade Silicone Seals and Orthopedic Sealing Parts for protecting medical equipment.
2)Biocompatibility:It’s used in the medical industry. So it must have excellent biocompatibility. When it touches human tissues or body fluids, it can’t cause bad reactions. Even in special cases—like the equipment touching the human body directly—it won’t harm patients or medical staff. This is a basic requirement for all Medical Device Seals and Ortho Care Components that may touch the human body.
3)Chemical Resistance:Medical environments use different chemical substances. Like disinfectants and cleaning agents. The screw hole plug must stand being worn away by these chemicals. It won’t swell, change shape, discolor, or get worse. This makes sure it works stably for a long time. This chemical stability is as good as that of Sterile Medical Seals exposed to harsh medical environments.
4)Temperature Resistance:It can adapt to a certain range of temperature changes. Whether it’s in high-temperature disinfection (like high-temperature steam sterilization that needs to stand 121℃ or higher) or low-temperature storage and use (like -20℃ low-temperature environments), it can keep good physical and chemical properties. It won’t affect its sealing and protective functions. This ability to handle temperature changes meets the disinfection adaptability of Nursing Equipment Gaskets.
5)Moderate Mechanical Strength:It must have a certain degree of flexibility. This makes it easy to put into the screw hole and take out. At the same time, it must have enough strength. It can resist damage or breakage when it’s pressed or hit by a certain amount of external force. This lets it keep its shape and function for a long time. This balance of mechanical performance is crucial for Surgical Instrument Seals and Ortho Care Components in frequent-use scenarios.
6)High Cleanliness:It won’t produce impurities like particles or debris. It won’t make the inside of medical equipment dirty. And it’s easy to clean. It meets the strict hygiene standards and cleanliness requirements of the medical industry. This hygienic attribute is the same as that of Medical Vial Cap Seals and other medical seals that touch medical environments.
