SHAFT SEALS
NBR Nitrile rubber is the most commonly used seal lip material with good durability, abrasion resistance and flexibility of mineral and vegetable oils. The substance is also suitable for use with inorganic substances, bases and acids, provided that the solutions are dilute and the temperatures are reasonable.
Operating temperature range: -20 + 120 ° C.

(trade name: Viton® Du Pont-Dow Elastomer)
Fluoroelastomer is particularly suitable for use at high temperatures and is highly resistant to oils, fuels and solvents. It is not recommended for use with low molecular weight esters or ethers, ketones or amines. Fluoroelastomer is ideal for applications where other elastomers wear or become brittle rapidly.
Warning! Combustible fluororubber forms a toxic gas. Burnt fluorinated rubber must be treated as a corrosive substance.
Operating temperature range: -18 + 220 ° C
