METAL DETECTABLE ELASTOMERS
As a result of excessive use, shearing and damage can occur to equipment causing undetectable product contamination. Metal detectables can eliminate product recall, lower product loss and decrease the risk of elastomers consumed in finished product.

Specially made for the meat and poultry industries, Tuf-Steel® metal detectable hygienic seals can be used on 500° F continuous hot oil applications.

System Protection with
Metal Detectable
Elastomers
A common problem with component and filler parts is excessive wear and tear.When rubber breaks off a moving part it can migrate through your system and into your product. Searching for and locating fragmented rubber parts is a costly, time consuming and inconclusive process requiring expensive xray equipment, manual observation and an extensive maintenance program. Not locating a worn and lost rubber piece can have an even costlier outcome. Rubber Fab provides an easy
 
   


and cost effective solution with metal detectable elastomers. By manufacturing a standard elastomer with a metal impregnated compound, displaced rubber material can now be located by an in-line metal detector. This alarm enables your system to instantly reject contaminated product.

Detectables are available in:
• Buna
• EPDM
• FKM
• Silicone
• Tuf-Steel®
