About Viton

Viton is a high-performance fluorocarbon rubber known for its exceptional resistance to extreme temperatures, chemicals, and oils. Viton lip seals and Viton oil seals offer superior sealing capabilities in harsh environments where standard rubbers may fail. With a temperature range from -20°F to 200°F, Viton maintains its integrity and performance, making it ideal for use in aerospace, automotive, and chemical processing industries. Its robust chemical resistance ensures reliable sealing against fuels, oils, and various industrial chemicals, making Viton a preferred choice for demanding applications.

Properties of Viton

1. High Temperature Resistance: Viton maintains its properties at temperatures ranging from -20°C to +200°C (-4°F to +392°F), making it ideal for high-temperature applications.
2. Chemical Resistance: Exhibits excellent resistance to a wide range of chemicals, including acids, oils, fuels, and solvents.
3. Ozone and Weather Resistance: Resistant to ozone, weathering, and aging, which helps it retain flexibility and strength over time.
4. Low Permeability: Offers low gas permeability, which is beneficial for applications involving gases and fuels.
5. Flame Resistance: Provides some degree of flame resistance and low smoke emission when exposed to fire.
6. Mechanical Properties: High tensile strength and excellent compression set resistance, maintaining its shape and function under mechanical stress.
7. Electrical Insulation: Good electrical insulating properties, making it suitable for electrical applications.
8. Flexibility at Low Temperatures: Retains flexibility at low temperatures, down to -20°C (-4°F).
