Short stopper silicone
The short stopper silicone is a small unit made to seal and plug openings on a variety of containers and devices. These units can be utilized in many different fields, and even though they are most commonly used in laboratories, they can be found pretty much everywhere including our private households. The reason why these products are made of silicone is that this material is extremely durable, reliable, and it can be reused and cleaned with ease. They are used for industrial applications when the container needs to be placed in extreme environments, which could mean that the unit should be able to not lose its shape or get damaged even when it comes in contact with high or low temperatures, moisture, and even chemicals.
As manufacturers, we offer short stopper silicone models that vary in sizes and dimensions, and we can modify them to help you get the best product for your project. We can customize the units when it comes to dimensions and colors, and we can do additional adjustments depending on what the client wants. If you cannot find what you are looking for right away, you can reach out to us with your requirements and we can collaborate to create the needed product.
The short stopper silicone is the perfect option when it comes to tight seals and they offer protection from both outside effects, and they will also keep the contents of the container from spilling. The only thing that you need to do to ensure the success of your project is choosing the right size if you want to create the needed tight seal. The short stopper silicone should not be too big or small for the opening, and you can use test units to check which one is the right one for your container.
Stopper & Plug Size Catalog
Compare four stopper profiles and check the selected part dimensions against your opening and available depth. Each profile has its own drawing and dimension meanings.
RST T-Shaped Plugs
Match stem diameter A, flange diameter B, stem length C and flange thickness D. E refers to the underside recess; use the selected row and approved drawing to confirm the actual profile.

RSA Tapered Corks
Compare large-end diameter A, small-end diameter B and Height, in mm. The mating bore and required seating depth determine where the taper contacts the opening.

RSB Undercut Plugs
Compare neck diameter A, flange diameter B, flange-to-lip distance C and flange thickness D. Check panel thickness and rear clearance. E refers to the underside recess.

RSD T-Shaped Stoppers
Compare stem diameter A, flange diameter B, stem length C and head thickness D, in mm. Check the seating surface and available depth as well as the hole diameter.
