Kalrez® seals reduce the meantime between failures for food and pharmaceutical applications
In pharmaceutical and food processing sealing applications where cleanliness is critical, PTFE has been the material of choice until now. Kalrez® perfluoroelastomer parts offer the same level of cleanliness and universal chemical resistance, but unlike PTFE they have true elastomeric properties and sealing capabilities.
FDA-compliant Kalrez® 6221 and 6230 parts provide low contamination from extractables. They are well-suited for contact with highly pure and aggressive water (WFI) systems, and exhibit very low swell and loss of mechanical properties after repeated steam cycling.
Kalrez® parts from DuPont Performance Elastomers are unique in that we are the only supplier that manufactures the polymer and the finished part. We provide full traceability;an attribute that is highly desireable for your critical applications. We also offer parts in standard shapes (such as O-rings and our new sanitary seal we are developing) and can produce custom shapes.
