V61C is a fluoroelastomer (FKM) material developed to offer increased efficiency and service life in low temperature applications.
V61C extends the operational performance of FKM seals by a full 15°C lower than is possible with traditional FKM grades and sets a new industry benchmark in low temperature performance.
V61C exhibits the same chemical and mechanical properties as conventional FKM grades and is available in almost any sized O-ring (standard and non -standard) and custom designed components.
Key Attributes
- With a glass transition of -40°C (-40°F), V61C 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 operating environments
- Seal applications that are exposed to cold situations
- Applications that demand high variations in temperature
