Media Resistance Guide
With our Media Resistance Guide you can easily check the resistance of our materials to the most common chemicals.
The most commonly used sealing element is the O-ring. Trygonal offers a wide range of O-rings and static sealing elements. Each O-ring size is available in metric or inch dimensions. It is also available in custom sizes. The smallest dimensions start with cord thicknesses and inner diameters of < 1 mm. The largest O-rings manufactured in one piece have cord thicknesses of > 30 mm or diameters of > 3000 mm.
Standard O-Ring
Our O-rings are manufactured in all common rubber materials, according to international standards, in metric and inch dimensions in hardness ranges from 40 to 95 Shore A or IRHD. In addition, a large number of special materials are available. Tools are available for currently 30,347 dimensions in 200 cord thicknesses.
Turned O-Rings
For special dimensions or if the application requires a special material, O-rings can also be turned. Turned O-rings are available from batch size 1 up to several thousand pieces, in dimensions from Ø10×1.0 mm up to Ø1450×25 mm depending on the material group.
Advantages:
- No mould costs
- Rings can be easily replaced in a very short time
FEP, PFA coated O-Rings
Sheathed O-rings combine the positive properties of the sheath and the rubber-elastic core and are therefore ideally suited for applications in the chemical, food and pharmaceutical industries.
Advantages:
- Low coefficient of friction and good sliding properties resistant to many organic and inorganic chemicals
- High thermal load capacity
- FDA approved
- Low vapour permeability
- Low compression set

Labs-free (no paint wetting interference) – LA
- Silicones and other substances that interfere with paint wetting are completely removed.
- After this process, the cleaned parts are safely "labs-free".
- Suitable for all materials except MVQ and MFQ.
- O-rings that are mounted in paint shops or come into contact with paint must be "labs-free".
Fluorination – FL
- Fluorination creates a flexible, thin and hard outer layer that greatly reduces the coefficient of friction.
- Attention: Only NBR and EPDM materials can be treated.
- This treatment prevents sticking and facilitates separation.
Overview FPM/FKM Compounds
Material description
There are many types of FKM's based on the monomers used to build the backbone of the elastomer. There are also three curing systems that have different performance characteristics. These characteristics define the performance of the product. Contact your supplier to determine which product and curing system is best suited for your process.

Overview CR Compounds
Material Description
Polychloroprene is an excellent universal elastomer with an attractive balance of properties and few practical limitations. Universal neoprene grades are divided into two groups: sulphur modified grades and mercaptan modified grades. Sulphur-modified neoprenes have increased tear strength and elasticity, while mercaptan-modified neoprenes have better resistance to heat and compression set.
Main Properties
Good inherent flame resistance; moderate resistance to oil and petrol; excellent adhesion to fabrics and metals; very good resistance to weathering, ozone and natural ageing; good resistance to abrasion and bending fracture; very good resistance to alkali and acids.
Limits
Poor to good resistance to aromatic and oxygenated solvents; limited flexibility at low temperatures.

Overview SBR Compounds
Material Description
SBR is similar to natural rubber in most respects and is the most cost-effective and highest-volume elastomer on the market. Although its physical properties are slightly worse than those of natural rubber, SBR is tougher and more resistant to heat and cracking and can easily be replaced by natural rubber in many applications. With the exception of silicone, butadiene has the lowest glass transition temperature of any commercially available elastomer and offers exceptionally good performance at temperatures as low as -62° C (-80° F).
Main Properties
Very good elasticity, tensile strength, abrasion resistance and flexibility at low temperatures.
Limits
Poor resistance to ozone and sunlight; very low resistance to oils, petrol and hydrocarbon solvents.

Overview AU Compounds
Material Description
Polyurethane is characterised by the combination of hardness with elasticity, excellent abrasion resistance and high tear resistance. It can be either ether or ester based. The ester-based polymer is superior in resistance to abrasion and heat; the ether-based polymer has better flexibility at low temperatures. Polyurethanes are available in both liquid and solid form. Polyurethanes are mainly used in applications that require a combination of their excellent properties: Toughness, tensile strength and abrasion resistance.
Main Properties
Excellent abrasion and tear resistance; very high tensile strength with good elongation; excellent weather, ozone and sun resistance; good oil and petrol resistance; excellent adhesion to textiles and metals.
Limits
Poor resistance to alkalis, acids and oxygenated solvents; poorer resistance to hot water.

Overview ACM Compounds
Material Description
The heat resistance of acrylic is better than that of most elastomers, with the exception of silicone, fluorosilicone and fluorocarbon. It is suitable for both hot air and hot oil over long periods of time. Acrylic has moderate resistance to cut growth and bending cracks. The use of acrylic is limited by its low flexibility at low temperatures. However, some types of acrylic glass may have improved flexibility at low temperatures at the expense of tensile strength and oil resistance.
Main Properties
Excellent resistance to heat and hot oil; excellent resistance to weathering, ozone, sunlight and oxidation; very good resistance to petrol and oil, especially sulphur-containing substances.
Limits
Poor resistance to alcohols, alkalis, solvents and aromatic solvents; limited flexibility at low temperatures; lower resistance to water and steam.

Overview of FFKM Compounds
Material Description
Perfluoroelastomers are products with a high utility value.
Main Properties
The best combination of chemical and high temperature resistance of all elastomers. Thermal stability depends on the polymer and curing chemistry. Peroxide crosslinking perfluoroelastomers have similar thermal resistance to FKM, while proprietary curing systems (such as Kalrez®) offer temperature resistance up to 327 °C with specific polymers.
Limits
The performance of perfluoroelastomers is limited at lower temperatures.
