Components used in industrial equipment must withstand taxing conditions in order to reduce downtime needed to repair or replace malfunctioning parts. To help manufacturers of industrial parts address this challenge, AGC Chemicals Americas offers AFLAS 100 series fluoroelastomers to enhance the performance and extend the life of pumps, seals and valves used in a variety of harsh processing applications.
AFLAS fluoroelastomers are resistant to acids, bases, solvents, hydrocarbons, sour oil and amines, as well as extreme temperature ranges and high-pressure environments. They are easily compounded by open mill and internal mixers. These compounds are then fabricated into finished parts and shapes using press molding, injection molding, extrusion and calendering processes.
