AS568-240 FFKM O-Ring — 94.84 × 3.53 mm
A robust, high-squeeze section for demanding static and reciprocating seals in larger equipment. With an inside diameter of 94.84 mm and a 3.53 mm cross section, this is a medium-bore seal for mid-size industrial equipment. Moulded from Aperflu 2275 perfluoroelastomer (FFKM) for continuous service up to 200 °C, this seal resists hot acids, caustics, solvents, fuels and steam.

Pharmaceutical and food processing
Steam-in-place and clean-in-place cycles, aggressive cleaning agents and potent active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) demand a seal that stays inert and dimensionally stable. Aperflu 2275 is suited to product-contact and CIP/SIP duties where extractables must be kept to a minimum.
Why Aperflu 2275 FFKM
Aperflu 2275 delivers Kalrez-class performance in aggressive media at a factory-direct price, with every AS568 size moulded to order and published unit pricing.
Typical applications
Hydraulic cylinders, chemical process valves, wellhead and downhole tooling, where Aperflu 2275 outperforms FKM and EPDM in aggressive media and elevated temperature.

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.
| Media group | Rating |
|---|---|
| Hydrochloric acid | Excellent |
| Nitric acid | Excellent |
| Sulfuric acid | Excellent |
| Acetic acid (glacial) | Excellent |
| Other hot organic & inorganic acids | Excellent |
| Caustics (ammonia, NaOH up to 50 %) | Excellent |
| Ketones, aldehydes, esters, ethers, alcohols | Excellent |
| Solvents, fuels, hydrocarbons, sour gases | Excellent |
| Steam and hot water | Excellent |
