VT75BU02 is a 75 shore A blue FKM Type A compound designed as a reliable, FDA compliant sealing solution for food and industrial applications. This material meets FDA CFR 21 177.2600 requirements, making it ideal for O-rings and gaskets used in food processing, beverage systems, and sanitary equipment where both performance and compliance are critical. It provides excellent resistance to heat, fuels, oils, and a wide range of industrial chemicals, along with strong durability against ozone, weathering, and aging. With a service temperature range of -26°C to 225°C, VT75BU02 meets ASTM D2000 M6HK810 requirements and delivers consistent sealing performance in demanding environments.
FKM, commonly referred to as Viton®, is a high performance fluoroelastomer widely used in O-rings and gaskets where resistance to fuels, oils, and elevated temperatures is essential. FDA compliant FKM materials are specifically formulated for use in food and beverage industries, combining strong chemical resistance with regulatory compliance and long service life. These materials are commonly used in applications requiring durable and clean sealing solutions under repeated use and cleaning cycles. While highly versatile, FKM materials are generally not recommended for hot water, steam, or certain polar solvents beyond their limits, making proper material selection important.
