FKM Rubber

FKM/VITON RUBBER

FKM (fluoroelastomer) was introduced in 1957 to meet the needs in the aerospace industry for a high-performance elastomer. Since then the use of FKM rubber has spread quickly to many more industries especially the fluid power and chemical industries. FKM material is one of the best elastomers around today that can perform in very hot and extremely corrosive environments.

Nitrile Rubber

NITRILE RUBBER

Nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) is a family of unsaturated copolymers of 2-propenenitrile and various butadiene monomers (1,2-butadiene and 1,3-butadiene). Because of its oil-resistant properties, Nitrile rubber is often used in the production of print rollers, fuel hoses and gaskets.
