FKM / Viton® expansion joints
Viton® expansion joints, also well-known as FKM / FPM expansion joints are suitable for a variety of applications, where aggressive chemicals (strong acids, aromatic solvents for hydrocarbons and fuels) or high temperature products are involved.
The FKM rubber expansion joint can handle temperature of up to 200°C .
Beside the standard grade of the FKM rubber expansion joint, many other special kinds of Viton, formulated are used to satisfy the different type of resistance requirements. This way our FKM rubber expansion joints can meet the best performance in almost every particular case.
Viton expansion joints compensate for thermal elongation and misalignment. FKM Expansion joints made of viton can isolate vibrations, dampen noise and pressure surges, in connection with pipes, pumps, etc.

Rubber expansion joint FKM / Viton - Purple
Rubber expansion joint FKM / Viton - Purple The offered FKM / Viton rubber expansion joint is made of Fluorine-polymer which can resist up to -20 to +150 C. This FKM rubber expansion joint guarantees good flame resistance, resistance to oxygen, ozone and natural weathering. This FKM rubber expansion joint however has a poor performance against ethers, ketones, and bases. Our high quality FKM rubber expansion joints provide excellent resistance against hig..
What are the temperature and chemical resistance capabilities of FKM / Viton® expansion joints?
FKM / Viton® expansion joints are engineered to withstand high temperatures of up to 200°C. They are particularly resilient against aggressive chemicals, including strong acids, aromatic solvents, hydrocarbons, and fuels, making them ideal for various industrial applications.
How do FKM / Viton® expansion joints compare to other materials in terms of durability?
Compared to other rubber materials, FKM / Viton® expansion joints exhibit superior durability and resistance to heat and chemical exposure. This makes them a preferred choice in environments where traditional elastomers may degrade quickly. For specific applications requiring reliable performance, the Rubber expansion joint FKM / Viton - Purple is a strong option.
What installation considerations should be taken into account for FKM / Viton® expansion joints?
When installing FKM / Viton® expansion joints, it is essential to ensure proper alignment to avoid undue stress on the joints. Additionally, the use of compatible flanges is crucial. For applications requiring a full-face solution, consider the Full Face Rubber Flange Rubber expansion joint for optimal sealing and support.
