Fluorogreen®

Fluorogreen E-110 is tested and proven unsurpassed when low deformation material is required. It is a chemically modified material, and uses the same manufacturing process as Fluorogreen E-600, giving the user ultra-low deformation characteristics at temperatures in the range of 500 degrees F. It is the recommended material for use in sodium hydroxide (black liquor) applications.

Fluorogreen E-600 matches E-110 in reliability when low deformation material is needed. E-600 is particularly suited for use in very caustic environments. It was originally developed 30 years ago for NASA's liquid oxygen and liquid nitrogen applications and continues today, unequaled in performance in the ever-changing, high tech space industry. E-600 is a tested and proven superior cryogenic material.
Fluoroblue E-140 is unmatched when high compressibility is needed. An example is glass piping systems. The formulation of P.T.E.E. and micro glass beads makes E-140 exceptionally effective when lower bolt loads are needed to effect a perfect seal. E-140 gives the user high tensile stength and excellent elongation.

Fluoromaroon E-250 is a chemically modified, unfilled material. Its properties, over non-modified materials, are major improvements including: extremely low deformation, excellent welding capabilities, very high tensile strength and elongation, ultra low void ration and high dielectric strength. Fluoromaroon E-250 is an excellent material in high temperature applications. It is especially effective for seals in rotating equipment and is used to encapsulate metallic components for protection against corrosion. Fluoroflange Gaskets combine Fluorogreen's ultra high performance materials with a perforated stainless steel insert. This combination results in the finest sealing P.T.F.E. gasket available. Unlike competitive gaskets, the Fluoroflange stainless steel insert is totally encapsulated, exposing no part of the insert to chemical attack. Fluoroflange gaskets give the user a high degree of safety and blow-out resistance. Fluoroflange gaskets are manufactured 3/32" thick in a full range of flange sizes and pressure ratings. Fluoroblack E-900 is chemically modified containing a specially formulated electrocarbon fiber material. E-900 is an excellent material for prolonged service against high concentrations of hydrofluoric acid. This combination of materials may make Fluoroblack E-900 the lowest deforming P.T.F.E. based material available. E-900 is also used to encapsulate perforated stainless steel inserts for use in our Fluoroflange flange gaskets.
