Perlast Perfluoroelastomers

Perfluoroelastomer (FFKM) is the most chemically resistant elastomer available and is effectively a rubber form of PTFE. Perlast^® perfluoroelastomer grades provide additional properties which prove most valuable in critical sealing applications where purity, high temperatures and retention of sealing force are paramount.
