Tecnoflon® FKM Low Temperature 

Readily processable

Tecnoflon® Low Temperature FKMs may be handled by traditional rubber processing methods.

Compression Molding

Compression molding is the oldest and most common form of molding of FKMs.

Transfer Molding

A medium viscosity polymer is recommended. A careful consideration of cure rate is important to ensure scorch safety.

Injection Molding

Injection molding is the most demanding molding process. The injection molding grade selected should have a molecular weight distribution to achieve the best flow and good scorch safety with a very steep cure rate. Molding fouling must be minimized by using formulations minimizing process aids and metal oxides.

Extrusion

Extrusion of FKMs is used to form extruded shapes, tubing, O-ring cord, and compression molding pre-forms.

Broad range of temperatures with no sacrifice in performance.

Tecnoflon® Low Temperature FKMs (VPL series) are designed for demanding sealing applications where they face temperatures as low as -40°C and aggressive chemicals found in Automotive, Oil & Gas and Aerospace environments.
