FKM/Viton® Rubber cord

FKM/Viton® rubber cord belongs to the fluoroelastomer category of elastomers. This rubber cord offers excellent resistance to a wide variety of corrosive fluids at elevated temperatures without major degradation.
 
FKM/Viton® rubber cords have excellent resistance to ozone, oxygen, have good mechanical properties, and low compression set. Viton® rubber cord is not suitable for contact with molecular weights ketones and esters (e.g methyl ethyl ketone). Due to its specialist properties, FKM/Viton® is much more expensive as compared to other elastomers.
 
The terms FPM, FKM, and Viton® very often cause confusion and lead to incorrect interpretations. All of these designations actually stand for one single base material: fluoro rubber.
 
Viton® cord is an all-round material capable of handling a diverse array of applications, particularly sealing jobs involving movement. It is suited for silicone fluids and gases, petroleum oils, acids, and some halogenated hydrocarbons.
