Extruded Flexible FKM Rubber Tube

FKM rubber possesses extremely high chemical stability and is a top-tier material among specialty rubbers in terms of corrosion resistance and high-temperature resistance. Extruded pure rubber tubing has a Shore hardness of 70-90A and is relatively expensive.

Performance

Performance Category

Specific Parameters

Temperature Range

Long-term: -20℃~300℃; 

Media Resistance

Resistant to almost all organic solvents (ketones, esters, aromatics, halogenated hydrocarbons); Resistant to strong acids and alkalis (sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, sodium hydroxide); Resistant to fuel oil, lubricating oil, hydraulic oil; Resistant to ozone, ultraviolet radiation, and aging

Physical Properties

9~18MPa; Elongation at break: 150%~300%; Air tightness: Superior to other rubbers; Aging resistance: ≥80% performance retention after 200℃×1000h

Advantages and Disadvantages of FKM Rubber

Advantages: Resistant to extreme high temperatures and strong corrosion; Broadest range of media resistance; Excellent air tightness; Long service life (5~10 years in harsh environments). 

Disadvantages: Extremely high cost (5-10 times that of NBR); poor low-temperature elasticity (easily brittle at -20℃); complex processing technology and difficult molding.

Typical Applications:

Aerospace: Engine fuel lines, hydraulic system oil lines, high-temperature steam delivery lines (ground testing of aerospace equipment).

Petrochemical: High-corrosion media delivery lines (e.g., strong acids, strong alkalis, organic solvents), high-temperature reactor unloading lines, chemical pump sealing sleeves.

High-end Automotive: High-temperature oil lines for turbocharger systems, engine exhaust system sealing lines, new energy vehicle battery cooling lines (high-temperature conditions).

Special Equipment: Fluid lines for semiconductor manufacturing equipment, hot air delivery lines for high-temperature ovens, strong solvent delivery lines in the pharmaceutical industry.
