โฆ Synopsis
Lengthy research and field testing has enabled
Busak+Shamban to successfully bond perfluoroelastomer (FFKM) seals to metal, offering major performance advantages for chemical and other process industries.
Many designers require sealing devices that incorporate a rubber lip, pad or membrane bonded onto a metal component. The metal detail can be either dynamic, such as a piston or valve device, or static as in the case of a coated or edgebonded gasket. Such bonding techniques have always been difficult when using high temperature, chemically resistant, FFKM materials. Following exhaustive research and development, the company can now offer a proven range of bonding solutions incorporating Isolast FFKM material grades with metal materials, including stainless and mild steel, aluminium and brass.
The bonding techniques employed do not compromise the physical performance properties or the general chemical resistance of the FFKM. Laboratory and field tests have shown that the bond integrity is greater than the tensile strength of the elastomer itself. In addition, immersion
