The Challenge
Due to the overwhelming number of black elastomers and the many types of fluoroelastomer materials confusion often occurs — leading to the wrong gasket or seal being used in critical services. This confusion can result in catastrophic gasket and seal failures. Color coding has long been considered ideal but technically out of reach…until now!
The Solution
Gasket Resources Inc. announces a breakthrough in material identification…the first color coded sealing material family manufactured from 100% Genuine Viton® fluoroelastomer. These materials have been extensively tested by third party laboratories (please see third party testing data sheet) and proven to be as chemical and temperature resistant when compared to carbon black filled materials while maintaining excellent physical properties in service.
Applications Include:
- Cam and Groove Coupling Gaskets
- Rail Tank Car Manway and Nozzel Gaskets
- Orings
- Quadrings
- Anywhere Genuine Viton® is required
