Material and function
FKM is a fluoroelastomer selected for oil, fuel and temperature-sensitive sealing. Chemical compatibility and low-temperature flexibility depend on the compound and cure system; evaluate the selected grade against the actual fluid and operating range.
Benefits and options
- Oil and fuel resistance
- Sealing at elevated temperatures
- Compound and cure-system selection
Manufacturing and customization
Rubber is compounded, formed in a mold and cured into three-dimensional parts. Select the material, tooling and finishing around the required geometry and production volume.
Design considerations
Select the material grade for contact media, operating temperature and mechanical loading. Include the installed compression, mating surfaces and expected service conditions when reviewing the component. Confirm performance using the selected compound and a representative sample.
