Chemicals, oils and heat, taken together or individually, present critical and unique sealing applications. Sealing problems can be avoided by selecting sealing materials suited to the rigors of these applications.
Style #501 sheet rubber, made with VITON® fluoroelastomer, is a high-performance product resistant to heat, oils, fuels, numerous acids and other chemicals.
- ASTM D2000-2HK-710-B37-Z1
- (Z1 equals durometer of 75 ±5 Shore A)
Style #505 is a branded, chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) sheet rubber product. CPE has excellent resistance to many chemical groups such as oils, acids, bases and alcohols. CPE is also very resistant to oxidation, heat and ozone.
- ASTM D2000-2CE-718-B15
Style #509 is a branded, chloro-butyl sheet rubber product, also referred to as “Butyl” sheet.
- ASTM D2000-CA-615
