O-Ring and Backup : FEP-PFA encapsulated O-Rings


MIDDLE  FEP encapsulated O-Rings

 

DESCRIPTION
The simple shape of a rubber O-Ring with the chemical resistance of a fluorinated polymer. A fulfilling alternative choice to FFKM  O-Rings.
A reliable sealing solution for the chemical, pharma and food processing industry.
  • FDA Approved
  • Available in any diameter
  • Temperature range
    • -25 + 200 °C with FPM  core (fluorinated rubber)
    • -50 + 200°C with MVQ core (silicone rubber)
  • Good compression set
  • Wide chemical resistance
  • Low friction coefficient
  • Don't stick to the surfaces
  • No ageing

GROOVE DESIGN AND ASSEMBLING

 

  • Unlike elastomeric ones, FEP encapsulated O-Rings show poor diametrical elasticity, consequently they must be ordered according with the actual groove dimensions.
  • For the same reasons, open groove assembling should be preferred.
    The closed groove assembling (not suggested) requires pre-heating in water/oil bath; a preliminary test is strongly recommended.

 

 

PRODUCT CODE

EXAMPLE:

FEP O-Ring 98 x 3.53  MVQ

Where:
- Inner Diameter A=98
- Cross section  B= 3.53 
- O-Ring material= MVQ

 CROSS SECTION   B  TOLERANCES
Encapsulated O-Rings show greater cross section tolerances when compared with elastomeric ones.
