hightemp silicone o-rings

As well as their extreme temperature resistance, our FFKM O-rings are also resistant to gas and liquid permeation, chemicals and oxygen-plasma. Another benefit of FFKM seals from TRP is their ability to resist over 1,800 different chemicals, including, organic and inorganic acids, hydrocarbons and ketones. Speciality grades of TRPlast, including Explosive Decompression Resistance, can also be formulated to produce high-temperature FFKM ‘O’ ring seals in a unique range of colours for identification purposes.

From November 29, 2024, companies are prohibited from using lead in PVC articles in the European Economic Area (provided that the concentration level is equal to or greater than 0.1%).

Lead is a toxic substance that affects the development of the nervous system, produces chronic kidney disease and has adverse effects on blood pressure. According to a study in 2016 by the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA), the release of lead from PVC articles containing lead stabilizers, during their lifecycle, contributes directly and indirectly to human exposure to lead. In light of the potential risks, it is appropriate to restrict any lead present in PVC regardless of its intended function.

To boost the circular economy and encourage companies to use recovered materials, grace periods for certain types of recovered PVC are specified as follows:

Quality is built into every aspect of our TRPlast high temperature ‘O’ ring seals. We operate under a quality system in accordance with ISO 9001:2015, with full traceability from raw materials to finished ‘O’ ring solution. Produced under the strictest of process controls, within cleanroom conditions, our extreme temperature ‘O’ rings are designed to deliver the highest standards of reliability and repeatability of performance.

On May 8, 2023, European Commission announced in the official journal to amend Annex XVII to Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (REACH Regulation), seeking to restrict the placing on the market or use of lead and its compounds in polymers or copolymers of vinyl chloride (PVC). The Amendment is set to enter into force on May 28, 2023.
