  • FKM.
  • FFKM.
  • FEP.
  • HNBR.
  • Viton® GLT.

Technical material selection

Because of the diverse range of markets within the Chemical Processing industry sector, a number of high performance materials are required to satisfy the demand for superior chemical sealing, reliability and long service life.

Plants around the world benefit from the company’s in-house Technical team, who can pin-point the best sealing solution for each process.

Perfluoroelastomers (FFKM)

Perfluoroelastomers provide outstanding chemical and thermal resistance, making them ideal for use in the most demanding Chemical Processing sealing applications. FFKM helps withstand many aggressive chemicals and extends the operational range in extreme high temperature environments.

Encapsulated O-Rings

Encapsulated O-Rings, including FEPs and PFAs, are recommended when a standard O-Ring has inadequate chemical resistance for an application and a solid PTFE O-Ring does not have the elasticity for reliable, long-term fluid sealing.

These have either a Viton® or Silicone core. A spring version is also available for cryogenic applications.

Experience and traceability

With over 30 years’ experience in the sealing industry, Eastern Seals provide Chemical Processing markets with sealing solutions that last longer, require less maintenance and deliver the lowest cost of ownership.

The company also provides full traceability, a highly desirable factor for any critical application.
