FFKM O-Rings

FFKM O-Rings are also known as Perfluoroelastomer seals. They offer excellent resistance to aggressive chemicals and extreme temperatures.

Why select FFKM O-Rings

FFKM O-rings are exceptionally resistant to degradation by aggressive fluids and gases. They retain sealing force from -10°C to +260°C in most grades, and specialist compounds can operate beyond 300°C when the application demands extreme service temperatures.

The chemical and heat resistance of FFKM is similar to PTFE, yet it combines those benefits with the elastic behaviour of an FKM O-ring. That means users get PTFE-level compatibility plus the flexible compression set performance that elastomer seals deliver.

FFKM O-rings offer resistance to almost all chemicals, including inorganic acids, alkalines, ketones, esters, alcohols, fuels and hot water. They are trusted anywhere aggressive chemical environments, mixed media or rapid thermal cycles are present.

Performance highlights

Our standard FFKM O-rings provide outstanding heat resistance with service temperatures of -10°C to 310°C, so most processes only need a single compound family.

  • Handles aggressive media from acids and alkalines to fuels and super-heated water.
  • Delivers the elastic recovery of FKM with the chemical resilience of PTFE.
  • Ideal for Chemical, Aerospace, Oil, High Vacuum Technology and Semiconductor industries.

Direct equivalents

Eastern Seals offer direct FFKM equivalents to Kalrez®, Simrez®, Perlast® and Chemraz® grades, simplifying qualification, change control and sourcing.
