Viton (FKM) rubber sheet
The Viton rubber sheet, also known as fluoroelastomer or FKM, is perfectly suited for the most demanding industrial applications because it resists hydrocarbons, acids, alkalis, and even oxidants. Its mechanical properties remain intact at temperatures up to 200 oC. Viton® sheets are used in heavy industries such as oil refineries, steel mills, and chemical plants, as well as in industries with specific requirements like the food industry.
