What is a FKM O-Ring?

Fluororubber FKM has different trade names on different brands. The FKM brand name of DuPontTM is Viton®, the FKM brand name of American 3MTM is DyneonTM, and the Japanese name Daikin® is DAI-EL.
FKM is a fully synthetic polymeric elastomer material. Compared with other rubber materials, fluorinated rubber has high tensile strength and structural strength in physical properties, high temperature resistance, and static sealing can be used in an environment of 200 degrees Celsius. Long-term work, the instantaneous high temperature can reach 250 degrees Celsius. In terms of chemical resistance, fluorinated rubber has excellent corrosion resistance. For organic solvents, inorganic acids, strong oxidants, and greases are superior to other types of rubber. In addition, fluorinated rubber is superior to other elastomer materials in terms of air tightness, weather resistance, flame resistance, radiation resistance and vacuum resistance.

The finished product of FKM generally refers to the fluorine rubber with 66% fluorine content of the original rubber, which is commonly known as Viton®.
In fact, fluororubber also has high-fluorine (HFKM) finished products, the original rubber fluorine content is between 67-70%, and the perfluorinated (FFKM) finished product, the original rubber fluorine content is more than 70%. Compared with the general fluorine content of FKM, it has stronger chemical resistance and physical properties, but the relative selling price is also high, and it is applied to a field requiring higher use environment.

The Catalyst Oil Seal is dedicated to the research and development of FKM, developing the CNL VT7500K material and making it into:
AS-568A O-ring, JISB2401 P, V, G, S specifications O-ring, oil seal, seals.
CNLVT7500K can be customized according to customer's specifications, color, form, hardness, anti-static or various environmental requirements, we can cooperate with customer production and development. At the same time, we can provide different types of raw material formulas according to the characteristics of our customers' products, and we can develop fluororubbers with special needs in line with our customers.

X-Ring

X-Ring is also known as Quad-Ring. The standard grooves are deeper in comparison with O-ring glands. The four lips emerge more sealing capacity. It will not spiral twist in the groove. The diametrical squeeze is lower than with O-rings to reduce friction to make the life longer. It is used in static and dynamic sealing.

Static o-ring seals versus dynamic o-ring seals application

The standard of O-ring includes Metric, British and JIS standard with varies sizes. O-Ring seal applications are categorized in terms of relative motion. In a static sealing application there is no movement between mating surfaces. Dynamic seals are used when there is motion between surfaces.
Rubber O-rings is one of the types that is used in static application. Rubber O-rings can also be used in commercial and industrial application. Oil sealing O-ring are utilized for dynamic applications.

O-rings FAQ

O-ring sizes?

What material is used to make O-rings?

We can produce different kinds of material based on customers' demand, such like NBR, SILICONE, FKM, EPDM, PU, FFKM…… etc. Rubber materials and characteristics please refer to "Rubber Characteristics and Appliocation.

O-Ring Applications?

Electronics Industry, Automobile Industry, Machinery Industry, Electric equipment, Medical equipment, Sports Equipment, Household Items and other Industries rubber parts.

O-Ring Characteristics?

  • Cost-effective
  • O-ring can be reused
  • O-rings require very little room
  • Easy to set-up
  • Static and Dynamic sealing
  • It is common sealing solutions
  • Many sizes available and easy to obtain
  • One piece groove design reduces hardware and design costs
  • Compound material choice for different purpose
  • How O-rings are manufactured?

    Some manufacturing companies inject preheated material, such as rubber, into a mold cavity, in order to create O-rings. The mold cavity is then fitted with a plug on top, enabling to pressure the mold cavity. With pressure increasing inside of the mold cavity, the preheated material takes the shape of the mold cavity.

    How to Select O-ring Size?

    When customers select O rings, they should consider 3 factors:

    Low Friction: The friction coefficient should be low between O rings and the device. That can make o-ring life growth and well abrasion resistance. It will still have a good seal damping effect after wearing.

    Recommended O-ring application service temperature:

    O-rings material may be failure due to high temperature or low temperature, chemical corrosion, vibration, wear and movement. At very low temperatures, almost all engineered materials are hardened and can not be sealed; at very high temperatures, the material may burn or decompose. So we should consider those circumstances to select the material.

    Compression forces and Durability:

    (1) Hardness: The lower hardness and the bigger compression; The higher hardness and the smaller compression. The low pressure will use the softer hardness and otherwise the opposite. (2)Material: The compression set on/about 20%, recommend NBR, EPDM, SILICONE material; The compression set on/about 15%, recommend special FKM, FKM/VITON and PU.

    How to store o-rings?

    Long-term storage of seals can cause physical changes, including hardening, softening, cracking or decomposition. The factors caused are damage, oxygen, light, ozone, temperature, humidity, oil or solvent.
