Viton Gasket & Seal Material

The high cost of Viton material may limit usage to extreme applications. Resilience is low and tear strength is limited unless certain compoundingsteps are taken to improve it. Impact resistance is fair. However, Viton has an excellent resistance to heat and oil combination; hot greases foundin engines and compressors as well as excellent resistance to a wide range of concentrated acids.

Viton Grade differential is seen mostly in the end-use performance of the viton gasket material. Each type will differ in its resistance to permeationand property degradation caused by the chemicals and fluids making contact with the material.

Viton A: (also referenced as commercial grade) the most widely used of the Viton grades as a general purpose seal for automotive, aerospace,lubricants and fuels.

Viton B: used in chemical processing, utilities and power industries.

Viton F: best suited for applications making contact with automotive fuels, aqueous inorganic acids, water and steam.

Viton Extreme: excceptional for extremely harsh chemical environments involved in automotive oil seals, aerospace fuels, oil field applications.
