Viton Rubber Oil Seals FKM
Viton (FKM) oil seals, also known as Teflon o-rings, are sealing elements (normally burgundy in colour) that are suitable for the heaviest of uses and those who require the highest levels of product quality and durability, as well as the technical requirements of the specific application.
They are chosen as seals as an alternative to the classic NBR nitrile rubber seals because they guarantee superior performance.
They are also highly resistant to acids and substances that are highly deteriorating for normal NBR nitrile rubber.
Viton or Teflon oil seals have no difference, they indicate the same material, fluorinated rubber (FKM), a tough fluoroelastomer.
Certainly because of its technical characteristics, Viton is a rubber formed from a high quality fluorinated elastomer, ideal for applications where higher specifications or intensive work is required, it is advisable to use a Viton (FKM) oil seal.
If your old NBR oil seal was not able to withstand this, we recommend that you choose quality FKM Viton rubber.
It is not afraid of contact with corrosive substances that could lead to the rapid deterioration of nitrite and silicones, which is why it is well suited to use as an alternative to normal rubber oil seals.
"Viton oil seals are also called "Simmering Corteco sealing rings".
