Viton® is a registered trademark of The Chemours Company (formerly DuPont) for a family of fluoroelastomers. The generic names are FPM (Europe) and FKM (USA). It's one of the most chemically resistant elastomers available, making it the premium choice for seals, O-rings, and gaskets in demanding applications.
Viton® excels with fuels, oils, and high temperatures but struggles with ketones and amines.
EPDM is best for water, steam, and bases but fails with oils and fuels.
NBR handles oils and fuels well but has lower temperature limits and poor ozone resistance.
