FC 502, F22 AND F316 Resistant O-Rings and Seals

FC 43 is a common chemical used in a variety of industries such as automotive, engineering, construction, and aerospace. It is also known by other names such as F22, F502, and F316.

Common uses for FC 43 include providing a sealant for joints and connections, lubricating moving parts, and providing a waterproofing agent. When rubber is exposed to FC 43, common failures include discoloration, cracking, reduced flexibility, and weakening of the rubber material. In extreme cases, this can lead to the rubber material becoming brittle and breaking. In order to prevent these types of failures, it is important to use the correct type of rubber material that is resistant to FC 43 and other chemicals.


EPDM (EP, EPR, Ethylene-Propylene Rubber)

EPDM o-rings, or ethylene propylene o-rings, are a family of synthetic elastomers with lower cost steam and chemical resistance, particularly for applications involving solvents, acids and other mild chemicals. Marco Rubber has the world’s largest inventory network of EPDM o-rings and made on demand custom manufacturing often without tooling fees, so the EPDM o-rings you need are always available. Whether it’s for water systems, braking systems, medical, pharmaceutical, food or dairy use, you can count on Marco Rubber to deliver your o-rings fast and efficiently.
