Industries  

For over 25 years, Kalrez® perfluoroelastomer parts have been providing the ultimate in sealing performance in the harshest processing environments. Some of the industries and applications in which Kalrez® parts provide superior performance include:

Chemical Processing

In pumps, valves, reactors, flange joints and other equipment, Kalrez® parts—whether O-rings, custom shapes or valve stem packing systems—are proving their value year in and year out as the best choice for long-term, reliable service.

Semiconductor

The success of Kalrez® has been field-proven in the manufacture of semiconductors, where processing steps can involve extremes of both thermal and chemical exposure.

Food and Pharmaceuticals

Food and Pharmaceutical applications require the ultimate in cleanliness and Kalrez® parts provide that along with excellent sealing performance in a wide range of aggressive media over a broad range of temperatures. The introduction of FDA-compliant Kalrez® compounds offers a new standard of sealing solutions with full traceability, low contamination from extractables and excellent seal life.

Aerospace

High-performance Kalrez® parts provide reliable and long-lasting sealing performance for the military, commercial and general aviation industry. They are used as oil seals in gas turbine engines and air delivery systems.

Oil and Gas

Kalrez® parts stand up to severe down-hole conditions—from high pressures and temperatures, to aggressive sour gas and corrosive fluids.

Whether you are in the chemical processing industry, oil and gas, wafer processing or thousands of other demanding applications, Kalrez® seals can extend your mean time between failures and reduce your risk of seal failure.
