V71C is a Terpolymer FKM material developed to offer increased efficiency and service life in low temperature applications.
V71C extends the operational performance of FKM seals by a full 15°C lower than is possible with well established low temperature FKM grades. It sets a new industry benchmark in low temperature performance.
V71C exhibits the same chemical and mechanical properties as B-type and G-type FKM grades.
Available in any sized O-ring (fully moulded up to 2m/6.5ft internal diameter) and custom designed components.
Key Attributes
- With a glass transition of -40°C (-40°F), V71C offers the widest operating temperature range of -51°C to +225°C
- Low compression set giving excellent seal performance
- Good elongation properties making fitting easier even at low temperature
- Excellent resistance to petroleum, oil, silicone and di-ester liquids
Typical Applications
- Valves and pumps in cold (Arctic) operating environments
- Seal applications that are exposed to cold situations or high temperature variations.
