FPM O-Ring 20 x 1 mm (FPM 75)

Properties of Viton (FPM/FKM): 

Fluoroelastomers have become increasingly important in the sealing industry. Due to their wide scope of application regarding chemical resistance, temperature range, low compression set and excellent aging properties, FPM/FKM is the most significant standalone elastomer developed in recent times. Fluoroelastomers are highly fluorinated carbon-based polymers that resist harsh chemical attacks and ozone in various applications. The operating temperature is between -20°C/-4°F and +204°C/+400°F, and temporarily higher.

Fluoroelastomer o-rings should be considered for use in aircraft, automobiles and other mechanical equipment where maximum resistance to high temperatures and many fluids is required. FKM (FPM, Viton®) resists mineral oils and lubricants, aliphatic, aromatic and also special chlorinated hydrocarbons, gasoline, diesel fuels, silicone oils and lubricants. It can be used in high vacuum applications.
