Product Description
Viton® FKM (Lip code: V) fluoroelastomer premium lip material offers the widest temperature range and chemical resistance of all seal materials.
Fluoroelastomers resist most special lubricants and chemicals that can destroy nitrile, polyacrylates or silicones.
This premium material, with its superior resistance to abrasion and high temperatures, provides superior performance and wear.
Works in dry running applications but only for intermittent periods.
It must be noted that although fluoropolymers such as FKM and PTFE are classed as resistant to high temperatures, they will thermally degrade on exposure to extreme temperatures (FKM @ 316°C/600°F) and (PTFE @ 371°C/700°F) and emit hazardous fumes containing hydrofluoric acid (HF).
In the unlikely event of such a high temperature incident, allow the components in question to cool, douse with limewater (Calcium hydroxide solution), and handle with PVC gloves until neutral pH confirmed, then discard.Rubber cover over a metallic core offers an excellent combination of sealing ability and corrosion resistance.
The rubber elastomer outer covering tolerates thermal expansion as well as roughness in the housing bore.
Because of the rubberized covering on the seal, there will be no fretting/galvanic corrosion of the metal bore that the seal is pressed into.Please note that not all product images are representative of the item being shown but are similar in appearance.
