Fluoride silicon rubber (FVMQ)

Fluoride silicon rubbers combine the good swelling resistance of the fluoride rubbers (FKM) with the low temperature flexibility (- 60 to +240°C) of silicon rubbers (VMQ). Like the silicon rubbers, also the fluoride silicon rubbers are cross-linked with peroxides.

FVMQ is for Shore-hardness Shore A 30-80 available.

Areas of application: Moulded parts with oil and fuel resistance with a wide temperature resistance range (e.g. aeronautics and space industry).
