FKM/Fluoroelastomer (Viton®) Rubber – Sheet Type 100



Fluoroelastomers for Oil and Gas Applications


Premium grade Viton™/FKM, a specialty fluoroelastomer in the FKM family, offers superior high-performance characteristics for the most demanding applications.

Outstanding resistance to high temperatures and corrosive chemical solutions, Viton/FKM offers low compression set with extremely high levels of resistance to ozone, oil, synthetic hydraulic fluids, fuels, aromatics and mineral acids. Due to its high resistance to petroleum based fluids it is commonly used in fuel and engine systems in addition to aerospace and aircraft service industries.

Viton/FKM is often chosen because it lasts longer than other sheet rubbers and retains its strength, flexibility and shape, allowing for higher performance and less downtime.

FKM Rubber Properties:

  • An exceptional balance of resistance to extreme temperature ranges
  • Resistance to atmospheric oxidation, sun, weather, fungus, and mold
  • Extremely low permeability
  • Excellent electrical properties in low-frequency application
  • Resistance to degradation from amines, caustics, oils, fuels, lubricants, and most mineral acids
  • Hydrocarbon fluids for efficient and continuous operation in downhole oil production applications


High Performance FKM/Viton(™) Rubber Fluoroelastomers are the clear choice for seals, gaskets, and other rubber parts requiring resistance to harsh chemicals and extreme production temperatures.
