What is Viton™?

Viton™ is a fluoropolymer elastomer and synthetic rubber compound, trademarked by DuPont under this brand name. It’s a fluorinated hydrocarbon rubber product with amazing capabilities, developed to withstand even the most challenging of environments.

Why use Viton™?

A Viton™ o ring will tend to be significantly more expensive than the equivalent nitrile component. This is because it simply does the job where other products cannot. In comparison to nitrile, Viton™ has a larger operating temperature range, better resistance to degradation from exposure to weather and ozone and is more chemically resistant too.

• High temperatures: A Viton™ o ring will withstand temperatures from -20°C up to 210°C.
• Chemicals: Viton™ can withstand a range of chemicals, including oils, acids, silicone fluids and gasses as well as halogenated and aromatic hydrocarbons.
• Environmental challenges: Viton™ can maintain a seal even in the presence of oxidation, UV exposure, weather, ozone, fungus and mould.
