Solid Nitrile (NBR) Rubber
Solid nitrile rubber provides excellent resistance to oil and gas handling equipment. It provides superior resistance to petroleum-based hydraulic fluids, oil and gasoline, very good resistance to alkalis and acids, and good resistance to hydrocarbons. Food grade version meets FDA 21 CFR 177.2600.
Applications include: Carburetor and fuel pump diaphragm, oil and gas packing, appliance seal
- Excellent resistance to oil and petroleum products
- Good abrasion resistance
- Good resistance to water
- Good compression set for sealing
