Benefits & Advantages
FKM is serviceable in continuous heat of up to 250ºC and intermittent heat of up to 300ºC.
FKM exhibits good flame resistance and is usually self-extinguishing upon removal of flame source.
FKM has excellent resistance to oxygen, ozone and natural weathering.
Resistance to chemicals; amongst all synthetic rubbers FKM is the most resistant to many of the solvents and chemicals, giving long service where other materials do not.
Excellent resistance against hydrocarbons, aliphatics, aromatic and chlorinated chemicals.
Good resistance to acids and alkali's including oxidants. Poor performance against ethers, ketones, and bases.
