FLUOROELASTOMER (FKM)
 
 

This family of polymers offer very good chemical resistance at both high and low temperatures.

They are used extensively in the automotive industry in power train seals such as crankshaft and gearbox seals and in fuel systems as veneered fuel line hose and pump seals.

They have a wide use in the chemical industry for pump impellers and diaphragms handling a wide variety of chemicals.

They have applications in the power industry where they are used in expansion joints in flue gas desulphurisation plants.
  • Excellent Permeation Resistance
  • Good abrasion resistance.
  • Good radiation resistance.
