Used for a broad range of products including gaskets, O-rings, Viton^® fluoroelastomer is the most specified fluoroelastomer, well known for its excellent (400°F/200°C) heat resistance. Viton^® offers excellent resistance to aggressive fuels and chemicals and has worldwide ISO 9000 and ISO/TS 16949 registration.

Whether your application is automotive, chemical processing or any number of other industrial applications, there is a particular type of Viton^® that best meets your specific performance requirements. Choose from numerous types of Viton^® for superior fluid resistance, low-temperature performance or combinations of these properties.

Performance in Demand
Viton^® fluoroelastomer was introduced in 1957 to meet the needs in the aerospace industry for a high-performance elastomer. Since then, the use of Viton^® has spread quickly to many other industries, especially in the automotive, fluid power, appliance and chemical industries. With over 40 years of field-proven excellence, Viton^® has developed a reputation for its outstanding performance in very hot and extremely corrosive environments.

Particularly valued for its excellent heat stability (200°C) and resistance to aggressive fuels and chemicals, Viton^® is the most specified fluoroelastomer for fuel system seals and hoses, O-rings, shaft seals, expansion joints and gaskets. New types of Viton^® are versatile, offering improved capabilities in steam, solvents, highly caustic environments and low temperatures. Because it extends the thermal resistance of mid-performance elastomers, Viton^® is used extensively in aggressive automobile fuel systems, aircraft and chemical processing environments. Viton^® is the first fluoroelastomer to achieve worldwide ISO 9000 registration.
