FKM rubber products processed to custom requirements, backed by an in-house mold workshop where the tooling for your own part can be designed and manufactured. FKM is selected for its resistance to a wide range of chemicals, oils and fuels, from aggressive acids through to industrial lubricants, so components keep performing rather than degrading in contact with the process. It also retains its structural integrity at elevated temperatures, which is what qualifies it for hot service positions, and it resists wear and environmental degradation so the part lasts in continuous duty. Automotive work is a typical application area.
Custom processing means the part is made to your geometry instead of being selected from a standard shape
An in-house mold workshop lets the tooling for your part be designed and made in the same place it will be moulded
Chemical resistance across acids oils and fuels lets one material cover mixed media in the same machine
Temperature stability keeps the part serviceable where heat would degrade a general purpose compound
Wear and environmental resistance extends the interval between part replacements in continuous duty
General purpose compounds are attacked by acids or lubricants and the part fails early
Standard shapes do not match the geometry the application actually needs
Sourcing tooling and moulding separately slows every change to the part
Parts that soften at elevated temperature lose their function in hot positions
Short part life in continuous duty forces frequent stoppages for replacement

FKM is specified where acids or elevated temperature would put nitrile beyond its service range
FFKM is reserved for the most aggressive chemistry while FKM covers oils fuels and acids at lower cost
Custom processing produces the geometry the application needs instead of the nearest available shape

View Details →Yes. FKM rubber products are processed to custom requirements, and the mould for your part can be designed and manufactured in the in-house mold workshop.
A wide range of chemicals, oils and fuels, from aggressive acids through to industrial lubricants.
It retains its structural integrity and continues to function at elevated temperatures, which is why it is chosen for hot service positions.
Yes. The mold workshop is in house, so the mould for your part is designed and manufactured alongside the production work.
FKM resists wear and environmental degradation, so service life is longer than a general purpose compound in the same duty. Actual life depends on your conditions.
Both depend on the part geometry and tooling status, and both are confirmed in writing with the quotation.
