Perfluoro elastomer
Chemical Name:
Perfluoro elastomer
Common Names: Kalrez™
ASTM D1418: FFKM
ISO/DIN 1629: FFKM
Special perfluorinated (i.e. completely free of hydrogen)
monomers and corresponding compounding and
process technologies can be used to manufacture materials
with highly elastic properties that are very close to
PTFE in media resistance and thermal resistance.
Seals
made of perfluororubber are used everywhere extreme
safety standards are applicable and higher maintenance
and repair costs exceed the price of the seals.
Temperature range
-15°C ~ 300°C / 5°F ~ 572°F
Preferred areas
— Chemical industry
— Oil-producing and processing industry
— Instrumentation and power station construction
— Aerospace
