Overview:
The FKM 75 O-Ring (5mm cross-section, 72mm internal diameter) is a high-performance sealing component designed for the piston assembly of the Technopack E-FP-1000-DX high viscosity filler. Engineered to provide a robust, leak-free seal during the critical suction and dispensing strokes, this O-ring is essential for maintaining precise volume control, reducing product loss, and ensuring consistent machine performance under high-viscosity conditions.
Key Features:
-
Premium FKM (Fluorocarbon) Elastomer:
Constructed from high-grade FKM rubber with a hardness of 75 Shore A, this O-ring is ideal for aggressive processing environments. It offers excellent resistance to chemical attack, high temperatures, and repeated mechanical stress.
-
Large Cross-Section for Dynamic Sealing:
The 5mm CS provides enhanced sealing surface contact within the piston chamber, ideal for managing the high pressures generated by thick, paste-like materials during the fill cycle.
-
Wide Chemical Compatibility:
Performs reliably across a broad range of product types, including food-grade formulations, industrial greases, cosmetic creams, and reactive chemicals. Withstands oils, fuels, solvents, and acids commonly found in complex formulations.
-
Temperature & Pressure Resilience:
Capable of withstanding elevated operating temperatures up to +200°C and pressures typical of piston-driven fill systems without degradation or loss of elasticity.
-
Designed for Long-Term Operation:
Resists compression set and wear under continuous cycling. This results in fewer maintenance intervals and a longer service life in high-throughput production settings.
Applications:
-
Machine Compatibility:
-
Functional Role:
-
Forms a tight dynamic seal between the piston and the inner wall of the fill cylinder, enabling accurate suction of viscous materials and complete product discharge during each fill cycle.
-
Prevents product backflow and leakage, ensuring volumetric consistency and operational efficiency.
-
Target Product Types:
-
High-viscosity food products (e.g., peanut butter, frosting, syrup)
-
Personal care items (e.g., body butters, balms)
-
Industrial applications (e.g., lubricants, silicone pastes, adhesives)
