KATON® FKM FK5 Series exhibits superior resistance to a wide variety of chemicals (such as aggressive oils, amine containing fluids, bases and steam), coupled with excel-lent processability.
KATON® FKM FK5 Series can be cross-linked using organic peroxides in conjunction with a co-agent.
KATON® FKM FK5 Series is excellent in:
• ATF fluids
• Steam
• Fluids containing amine additives
• High PH packages
