PETROLEUM OIL, CRUDE Resistant O-Rings and Seals
Petroleum oil, also known as crude oil or unrefined oil, is a naturally occurring liquid found beneath the Earth's surface. It is used in a variety of industries, including petrochemicals, automotive, and the production of rubber and plastic components.
At temperatures below 250°F, rubber can become soft and pliable, making it more prone to tearing and other physical damage. Additionally, petroleum oil can cause rubber to swell, leading to sealing failure and deformations in rubber parts. In extreme cases, petroleum oil can also cause chemical degradation of rubber, leading to cracking, hardening, and eventual failure.
Fluorosilicone (FVMQ, FSIL)
Fluorosilicone o-rings are a hybrid of silicone and FKM resulting in great jet fuel resistance with high and low temperature performance. Also widely used in semiconductor Ashing equipment with strong resistance to oxygen plasma, FVMQ fluorosilicone o-rings also feature excellent flexibility, compression resistance, aging and sunlight resistance, and overall wide range of basic chemical resistance.
