FKM Viton Tri-Clamp Gaskets - FDA Compliant - USA Made

Our FKM (Viton®-similar) Tri-Clamp gaskets are precision-molded from premium fluoroelastomer (FKM) for outstanding mechanical strength, chemical resistance, and heat stability . Built for sanitary and industrial service, they deliver reliable, long-term sealing in demanding processes.
FKM is particularly well-suited for hot fatty oil products and aggressive media, and performs exceptionally in high-temperature and steam environments. Its high molecular weight and low gas permeability make it especially effective in hard vacuum service , maintaining seal integrity under extreme conditions.
These gaskets offer excellent flexibility from 0°F to 400°F under continuous duty and can tolerate higher short-term excursions without loss of elasticity—ideal for pharmaceutical, food, chemical, and laboratory workflows.

Confirm size, material, and media compatibility prior to ordering. For bulk pricing and compound certifications, contact our sales team.

FAQ

What is FKM and why choose it over other gasket materials?

FKM is a fluoroelastomer known for excellent mechanical strength, chemical resistance, and heat stability. It outperforms many elastomers in hot, chemically aggressive, steam, and vacuum applications.
What temperature range do these gaskets handle?

They offer excellent flexibility from 0°F to 400°F in continuous duty and can tolerate higher temperatures for short periods.
Are they suitable for steam and vacuum service?

Yes—FKM performs very well in high-temperature steam and is especially good for hard vacuum due to low gas permeability.
Can I use them with hot fatty oils and aggressive media?

Yes—FKM is particularly well suited for hot fatty oil products and many aggressive chemicals. Always confirm compatibility with your specific media.
Do you offer compound certifications or documentation?

Yes—on request we can provide available material information and documentation. Contact our sales team for details.
