Viton O-Rings
Viton O-rings, made from fluorocarbon elastomer, are known for their exceptional chemical resistance, especially to fuels, oils, and a wide range of aggressive chemicals. These O-rings are ideal for high-temperature and high-pressure applications in the automotive, aerospace, and chemical processing industries. Viton O-rings are available in various sizes and profiles to meet diverse sealing requirements, including custom profiles such as chamfered edges.
Available Variations:
Standard O-Rings: Suitable for general-purpose sealing applications, especially where high chemical resistance is required. Square Section O-Rings: Offers enhanced sealing in specific applications.
Custom Profiles: Chamfered, beveled, or other custom profiles are available to meet specific needs.
