Product Specifications
MEDIA | MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE | APPLICATIONS |
---|---|---|
N – Natural Cotton | 300°F 150°C | Same (non-FDA) applications as bleached cotton. |
C – Bleached Cotton FDA | 300°F 150°C | For potable liquids, vegetable oils, beverages, organic solvents, water, dilute acids, petroleum oils and other services. |
P – Polyester | 250°F 121°C | Chemical compatibility similar to cotton and polypropylene. Has a higher temperature resistance than polypropylene in most cases. |
E – Polypropylene | 180°F 82°C | Filtration of organic acids, alkalis, solvents and many other chemicals. Very effective in low viscosity solutions. |
S – Polypropylene FDA | 180°F 82°C | Same chemical compatibility as polypropylene but complies with FDA regulations that permits contact with food and edible products. |
R – Rayon | 300°F 150°C | Chemical compatibility similar to cotton. Used primarily in filtration of petroleum oils. |
CAPS & CORES | MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE | CHARACTERISTICS |
S – Tinned Steel | 375°F 191°C | General purpose applications |
P – Polypropylene FDA | 180°F 82°C | For lower temperature applications of corrosive fluids and gases. Easily incinerated to a trace of ash. |
4 – 304 Stainless Steel | 750°F 399°C | For high temperature dilute acids and moderately corrosive fluids. |
6 – 316 Stainless Steel | 750°F 399°C | For high temperature applications and highly corrosive fluids. |
GASKETS & O-RINGS | MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE | CHARACTERISTICS |
B – Buna | 300°F 149°C | Very good resistance to water, alkalis and many acids. Poor resistance to oils, gasoline and most solvents (except oxygenated). |
V – Viton | 450°F 232°C | Can be used at high temperature with many fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids and solvents. |
T – Teflon | 500°F 260°C | Excellent resistance to almost all chemicals and solvents. Good heat resistance, exceptionally good low-temperature properties. |
S – Silicone | 600°F 316°C | Excellent heat resistance. Fair water resistance, poor resistance to steam at high pressures. Fan to good acid and alkali resistance, poor resistance to oils and solvents. |
N – Neoprene | 250°F 121°C | Good resistance to non-aromatic petroleum, fatty oils, solvents (except aromatic, chlorinated or ketone types). Good water and alkali resistance, fair acid resistance. |
E – EPDM | 300°F 149°C | Very good water resistance. Excellent resistance to oils and gasoline. Fair to good resistance to acids and alkalis. |
