FFKM O-Rings (Perfluoroelastomer) Selection Guide
Highest performance sealing materials for extreme temperatures and chemical resistance
FFKM o-rings are the highest high-performance family of o-rings with the highest temperature (up to 620F) and ultimate chemical resistance. FFKM o-rings are specifically manufactured for extreme applications where up time performance is worth the significantly higher cost compared to other basic materials. Marco Rubber's high-volume allows substantial savings on FFKM o-rings from the various FFKM brands like Chemraz® best value Markez® o-rings, for high-performance FFKM o-rings without the high-performance price tag. FFKM O-Rings are in stock and available to buy online.
Markez®
Markez® o-rings provide unrivaled value in harsh applications – made with nearly identical ingredients as the highest priced brands. Designed to be a low-cost Kalrez® alternative with comparable performance for specific applications, Markez® o-rings may lead to substantial savings if your application is a good fit.
Chemraz®
Chemraz® o-rings have high heat, chemical and solvent resistance like many FFKM o-rings. It's defining properties, however, are exceptional resistance to steam and performance in low-temperature environments, as well as availability
Parofluor®
Marco Rubber carries Parofluor® o-rings from Parker Seals which may offer great value for your application. Parofluor® o-rings are specially formulated for dozens of different environments and feature high temperature and chemical resistance.
Simriz®
Simriz® o-rings from Marco Rubber excel in aggressive environments like dry process chemistries and reactive plasmas. Like most FFKM o-rings, Simriz® o-rings offer excellent heat resistance, but many Simriz® materials also provide great low temperature performance and amine resistance too.
