FKM (Viton®) gaskets are premium sealing solutions designed for plate heat exchangers (PHEs) operating in extreme chemical and thermal environments. Known for their exceptional resistance to aggressive fluids and high temperatures, FKM gaskets ensure reliable performance in the most demanding industrial applications.
Key Features:

Chemical Resistance – Excellent resistance to:

Acids & Alkalis (e.g., sulfuric acid, nitric acid, caustic soda)
Hydrocarbons (fuels, oils, solvents)
Aromatic & Chlorinated Compounds

High-Temperature Performance – Withstands -20°C to +200°C (-4°F to 392°F), with short-term tolerance up to +250°C (482°F).
Low Compression Set – Maintains sealing integrity under prolonged compression.
Durability – Resistant to aging, ozone, and UV exposure.
Customizable – Available in bonded, clip-on, or glued styles for all major PHE brands (Alfa Laval, GEA, APV, etc.).

Applications:

Chemical Processing – Aggressive media handling (e.g., acids, solvents).
Oil & Gas – Refineries, petrochemical plants.
Pharmaceutical – Sterile and high-purity fluid transfer.
Power Generation – High-temperature heat transfer systems.

Options:

Grades: Standard FKM, high-fluorine content (FFKM) for ultra-corrosive environments.
Hardness: 70-90 Shore A (adjustable for specific needs).
Colors: Black (standard), customizable upon request.
