Chemical Processing
Reactors, pumps, valves and piping in continuous contact with acids, solvents and process chemicals require compound selection validated against the specific chemistry, concentration and temperature of service.
Typical applications
Where FITCO seals are used
- Reactor and vessel flange seals
- Chemical pump and valve O-rings
- Acid- and solvent-resistant compounds
- High-severity FFKM for mixed-chemical service
