What is the temperature range of Viton O-rings?
Viton seals provide an indefinite seal for temperatures up to 400°F, and for temperatures up to 600°F they offer an excellent seal for more than 48 hours.
What temperature is Viton rated for?
Viton® temperature rating Depending on the grade the working temperature range is considered to be -26°C to +205°/230°C (-15°F to +400°/440°F). But for short working periods it will take even higher temperatures.
Are Viton O-rings heat resistant?
Viton ® o-rings from Marco Rubber offer excellent compatibility with a range of chemicals, oils and resist high temperatures up to 400F.
What temperature can O-rings withstand?
Why silicone O-rings (VMQ)? Excellent resistance to extreme temperatures -50°C to + 232°C (-58°F to +450°F). Some special compounds resist even higher temperatures. Retention of properties of silicone at high temperature is superior to most other elastic materials.
Is Viton conductive?
Electrically conductive; relatively expensive; low resilience, poor low temperature flexibility.
What is the temperature range of Viton O rings?
The temperature range of Viton® (FKM/FPM) is considered to be between -20°C and +205°C depending on the grade. It can take even higher or lower temperatures such as -30°C / -45°C and +230°C, but for short working periods. For further information regarding Viton® O Rings visit our Material Properties page.
What is the temperature range of Viton fluoroelastomers?
Viton™ temperature range. The temperature range of Viton™ (FKM/FPM) is considered to be between -20°C and +205°C depending on the grade. It can take even higher or lower temperatures such as -30°C / -45°C and +230°C, but for short working periods.
What’s the low temperature of a Viton seal?
Cold—Viton™ low temperature performance is dependent on type, with serviceability as low as –31 °C (–24 °F) in dynamic seals and –45 °C (–49 °F) in static seals using Viton™ GLT-S. Viton™ is characterized by its: • Resistance to degradation by a greater variety of fluids and chemicals than any other non-fluorinated elastomer.
When do you use a FKM O ring?
FKM O Rings are used in automotive, aircraft and other diverse appliances and installations that demand supreme resistance to high temperatures and to numerous liquids. They are also reluctant to high vacuum, silicone oils and greases, petrol, diesel fuels, aliphatic, mineral oils and greases, and chlorinated hydrocarbons.
