To get the most out of your aerospace sealing solutions, you’ll need to use the right materials for the job at hand. Choosing which material is right for you can be complex, given the industry’s stringent regulations and extreme operating environments.

Sealing Devices is proud to partner with Parker to offer a wide range of seal and gasket materials for aerospace applications. Our Parker Aerospace Material Reference Guide will help you compare these options to find the right one for your needs, including:

• Fluorocarbon (FKM), which provides strong chemical resistance and durability
• Silicone (VMQ), which boasts excellent temperature and ozone resistance
• Fluorosilicone (FVMQ), which combines the two for added versatility
• Nitrile (NBR), which pairs cost-effectiveness with high mechanical performance
• Perfluoroelastomer (FFKM), which has the most comprehensive chemical resistance of any rubber

Environmental considerations aside, some aerospace projects may require adherence to MIL-Spec specifications or other standards. Whatever the specifics, your choice of material makes a substantial difference, and our Parker ORD 5800 Aerospace Industry Material Reference Guide is here to help.
