Perlast® for life science

Perfluoroelastomer (FFKM) is the most chemically resistant elastomer available and is effectively a rubber form of PTFE. This universal chemical compatibility makes Perlast® FFKM the ultimate choice for seals for life science applications.

Perlast® is tried and tested against the unique challenges of food, dairy, pharmaceutical, and biomedical production and process applications, with key industry certifications in place.

Perlast® combines chemical resistance and high temperature performance to deliver exceptional sealing performance in food and pharma applications.

Key features of Perlast® FFKM

FFKM O-rings and seals manufactured from Perlast® perfluoroelastomers offer the in ultimate sealing performance and reliability for life science industries and applications.

The unique cross-linking system employed in Perlast® perfluoroelastomers ensures almost universal chemical resistance (similar to PTFE). This allows Perlast® to outperform competitor FFKMs in many chemical environments.

Perlast® G74S is resistant to steam, amines, and solvents – making it ideal for withstanding SIP and CIP cleaning regimes.

A key advantage of this universal suitability is the ability for users to rationalize onto a single material grade across all applications, removing logistical complexity from your operations.

Perlast® perfluoroelastomers provide class-leading high temperature capability in food and pharmaceutical applications.

Perlast® G74S is a white perfluoroelastomer material which offers universal chemical resistance combined with high temperature capability up to 260°C (500°F).

FFKM O-rings and seals manufactured from Perlast® perfluoroelastomers deliver reliable high performance sealing in applications where seal failure can have severe consequences for consumer health and safety.

When seal integrity matters most, and failure is not an option, Perlast® material grades are sealing without incident.

Perlast® FFKM O-rings and seals for life science applications are fully compliant with key industry-specific regulations, including:
