Description / Abstract:
Form
This specification covers a fluorocarbon (FKM) rubber in the
form of O-rings, O-ring cord, compression seals, and
molded-in-place gaskets for aeronautical and aerospace
applications.
Application
These products have been used typically as sealing rings,
compression seals, O-ring cord, and molded-in-place gaskets in
contact with air and a wide variety of fuels, lubricants, and
specific hydraulic fluids but usage is not limited to such
applications. Each application should be considered individually.
This class of fluoroelastomers is not recommended for use in high
temperature stabilized, "HTS", engine oils. Each "HTS" oil should
be evaluated separately. This fluorocarbon rubber has a typical
service temperature range of -20 to +400 °F (-29 to +204 °C) in
air.
Safety - Hazardous Materials
While the materials, methods, applications, and processes
described or referenced in this specification may involve the use
of hazardous materials, this specification does not address the
hazards which may be involved in such use. It is the sole
responsibility of the user to ensure familiarity with the safe and
proper use of any hazardous materials and to take necessary
precautionary measures to ensure the health and safety of all
personnel involved.
