AS568-001 FFKM O-Ring — 0.74 × 1.02 mm
A miniature seal for precision fluid paths, micro-fittings and instrumentation where space and squeeze are tightly constrained. With an inside diameter of 0.74 mm and a 1.02 mm cross section, this is a micro seal for micro-seals and miniature devices. Moulded from Aperflu 2275 perfluoroelastomer (FFKM) for continuous service up to 200 °C, this seal resists hot acids, caustics, solvents, fuels and steam.

Chemical synthesis and reactors
Reactor flanges, distillation columns, agitators and transfer lines carrying corrosive intermediates. The perfluoroelastomer resists swelling and degradation, keeping batch consistency and seal integrity across long runs.
Why Aperflu 2275 FFKM
Perfluoroelastomer (FFKM) is the most chemically and thermally resistant elastomer class available — rated for continuous use beyond 200 °C and stable against well over 1,600 chemicals, which is why it is specified where FKM, silicone and EPDM fail.
Typical applications
Micro-fluidic couplings, lab instrumentation, small pneumatic valves and metering devices, where Aperflu 2275 outperforms FKM and EPDM in aggressive media and elevated temperature.
Compound properties
| Property | Typical value | Test method |
|---|---|---|
| Hardness | 70 – 71 Shore A | GB/T 39693.4 |
| Tensile strength | 21.2 – 21.8 MPa | GB/T 528 (dumbbell type 2) |
| Elongation at break | 155 – 170 % | GB/T 528 (dumbbell type 2) |
| Compression set, 200 °C × 70 h (25 %, method B) | 15 – 16 % | GB/T 7759.1 |
All values are typical. Every batch is shipped with an individual certificate of analysis and may differ from the typical values listed here.
Chemical resistance
The fully fluorinated backbone of Aperflu 2275 resists the aggressive media that attack FKM, EPDM and silicone — including concentrated hydrochloric, nitric, sulfuric and glacial acetic acids, strong caustics, and a broad range of solvents and fuels. Refer to the rating table below for guidance, and confirm your exact media with our engineers.
