Key Advantages |
Typical Media |
Application Scenarios |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) |
-200°C ~ 260°C |
≤ 100 bar (PN100) |
Excellent chemical resistance; low friction coefficient; anti-sticking, anti-aging; can be filled with glass fiber/carbon/graphite to enhance performance |
Water, oil, steam, various chemicals, corrosive fluids, clean media |
Corrosive service; food, pharmaceutical, clean service; general industrial valves |
|
FKM (Fluoroelastomer / Viton®) |
-20°C ~ 200°C (short-term 220°C) |
≤ 64 bar |
Excellent high-temperature resistance; good oil, ozone and aging resistance; good resilience (elastomer) |
Oil, fuel, aromatic hydrocarbons, weak acids |
Hydraulic systems, petroleum industry, high-temperature oil systems |
|
Flexible Graphite |
-200°C ~ 650°C (up to 800°C with Inconel reinforced) |
≤ 250 bar |
Ultra-high temperature resistance; good thermal conductivity; low friction; good tightness; excellent for steam service |
Saturated steam, superheated steam, oil, high-temperature water |
Steam valves (boiler, power plant); high-temperature, high-pressure (HPHT) valves |
|
PEEK (Polyetheretherketone) |
-50°C ~ 260°C (continuous service) |
≤ 250 bar |
High mechanical strength and rigidity; low creep; excellent dimensional stability; good wear and fatigue resistance; good chemical resistance; better high-temperature performance than PTFE |
Water, oil, steam, chemicals, harsh industrial fluids |
High pressure, high temperature (HPHT) service; critical service valves; long-life, wear-resistant packing scenarios |
|
NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber)
|
-30°C ~ 120°C |
≤ 25 bar |
Good oil and fuel resistance; low cost; good resilience |
Water, oil, fuel |
Low-pressure water/oil valves; general low-pressure industrial scenarios |
|
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Rubber) |
-40°C ~ 150°C |
≤ 25 bar |
Excellent steam and hot water resistance; good weather and ozone resistance |
Water, hot water, steam, weak chemicals |
Water systems, HVAC, cooling systems; low-pressure steam valves |
