FEP Encapsulated O-Rings

FEP Encapsulated O-Rings

Viton, Silicone, and EPDM Core Encapsulated O-Rings (FEP) are specialized sealing solutions designed for challenging environments. These O-Rings feature either a Silicone or Viton core encapsulated in Teflon-FEP, providing enhanced chemical resistance and resilience against compression sets. This makes them ideal for harsh sealing applications.

Description

These encapsulated O-Rings combine the strengths of their core materials with the superior properties of Teflon encapsulation. The core materials, Silicone or Viton, offer flexibility and durability, while the Teflon-FEP encapsulation adds significant chemical resistance and high-temperature tolerance. This seamless encapsulation eliminates weak points, ensuring robust performance.

Teflon encapsulation is not only chemically resistant but also FDA approved, making these O-Rings suitable for applications requiring stringent regulatory compliance. They are capable of withstanding higher operational temperatures, expanding their usability in various industrial settings.

For applications requiring delicate handling, such as sealing glass or plastic components, a hollow core FEP option is available. This variant provides the necessary sealing capabilities without exerting excessive force on sensitive materials.

The dimensions of FEP encapsulated O-Rings are defined by their inside diameter (I.D.) and cross-section (C.S.). A wide range of sizes is available, including standard British sizes (BS). Additionally, custom sizes can be provided to meet specific application requirements, ensuring a perfect fit for any sealing challenge.
