Product Description
Our viton solid rubber cord is a high performance product, which is regularly used in automotive, aeronautical, gas and petrochemical sealing applications. Viton is a brand name for FKM or flouroelastomer rubbers that all belong to the same category of elastomers. Viton cords are typically used in highly specialised applications due to the excellent combination of mechanical properties and resistance the cords provide.
Aside from specific high temperature grades, Viton solid rubber cord features the highest operating temperature of any of our rubber cords. It also provides excellent resistance against mineral acids, hydrocarbons and organic solvents deterioration.
