FFKM O-Rings

Advantages of FFKM O-Rings

The low outgassing properties of FFKM rubber rings make them a good choice for vacuum sealing applications. FFKM rubber O-rings are non-flammable in the air and are self-extinguishing. They have very low permeability and explosive decompression capabilities.

They also provide good flame retardancy and sealing properties but are less resistant to cold temperatures than O-rings made from other materials. 

• Special precautions

FFKM O-rings are available and can be designed for specific situations. FDA-compliant products can be used in food, beverage, and pharmaceutical processes.

For those who require reliable sealing for vacuum or UHV applications, cleanroom-manufactured FFKM O-rings are available. These are created for situations where low outgassing and particulate emissions are required.

Common Uses

• In semiconductor applications, FFKM rubber O-rings help prevent contamination while providing chemical resistance and thermal stability. Since FFKMs are resistant to swelling and brittleness, chemical process applications can also take advantage of them.

• In food and pharmaceutical applications, FFKM O-ring provides heat and chemical resistance while protecting against contamination.

• FFKM O-rings can withstand temperatures ranging from -15°F to 608°F, making them a strong choice for aerospace applications. The temperature resistance and high-pressure resistance make it an excellent choice for the oil and gas industry.
