Medical Seals

May 10, 2021

Sealing solutions for medical applications require highly precise designs that meet strict industry regulations. In many cases, a patient’s life depends on the success of a single medical seal. Apple Rubber medical seals are designed with the highest quality materials and carefully executed to ensure every seal is aligned with medical standards.

Medical Grade Elastomers

Apple Rubber utilizes durable, trusted medical grade elastomers that are tested to FDA USP Class VI or ISO 10993 test protocols. While every medical seal can be customized, we carry three superior elastomers on hand that feature improved chemical resistance, excellent heat resistance and low permeability to gas. These elastomers include:

• Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR)
• Viton® Fluoroelastomer (FKM)
• Ethylene Propylene (EPDM)

From the simplest parts to the most complex designs, our engineers can custom build the seal you need, no matter how big or small. Currently, we design and manufacture medical sealing devices for:

• Medical appliances
• Ventilators
• Testing consumables
• Medical pump seals
• IV components
• Feeding devices
• Implant materials

Quality Assurance

Apple Rubber is home to a Class 10000 ISO-07 certified cleanroom for consistent manufacture and testing high quality components in-house. Our cleanroom holds advanced technology that ensure safe, regulated sealing solutions, including liquid injection molding machines, post-cure ovens, and a fully automated ultrasonic parts cleaning system.

From elastomeric parts and seals to micro-miniature custom solutions, our certified cleanroom allows us to develop innovative medical solutions that can withstand exposure to the range of chemical and temperature environments in the medical field. Depending on your requirements, our engineers can provide quality documentation from First Article for full IQ OQ PQ.
