Viton Rubber Strip
At Advanced Seals & Gaskets, our production includes a wide array of top-notch Viton Rubber Strips, crafted from Viton rubber, often termed sealing strip, gasket strip, or isolation strip. Our skilled team employs advanced machinery and follows customer samples or drawings to manufacture these Viton rubber strips.
To meet precise requirements, we offer custom-made Viton rubber strips, produced with the help of band saws, strippers, log cutters, and presses, depending on size and volume. In-house production ensures rigorous oversight of the entire manufacturing process, maintaining consistent high quality and competitive pricing.
Our Viton rubber strips are sourced from rolls or sheets, available in a range of standard thicknesses, commencing at a mere 0.5mm. We offer options for self-adhesive backing or lamination to other materials, allowing us to deliver strips measuring from 4mm in width, with a choice of pre-cut lengths or coils spanning up to 10 meters in length.
What are Viton Rubber Strips?
Rubber strips serve a sealing purpose similar to gaskets, filling gaps between uneven surfaces. We offer various solid rubber materials like Viton in different grades tailored for specific applications.
Viton rubber strips, available in thicknesses from 0.5mm to 50mm, and widths from 4mm, come in pre-cut lengths or up to 10-meter rolls, with plain or self-adhesive finishes.
Key Features and Benefits:
Chemical Resistance: Viton rubber resists a wide array of chemicals, including acids, bases, solvents, and hydrocarbons, making it ideal for chemical processing industries.
Temperature Range: Viton withstands extreme temperatures from -20°F (-29°C) to 400°F (204°C) or higher in specialized formulations, suitable for cryogenic and high-temperature applications.
Oil and Fuel Resistance: It exhibits excellent resistance to oils, fuels, and lubricants, ensuring integrity and sealing capabilities, perfect for automotive, aerospace, and industrial applications.
Weather and UV Resistance: Viton endures weathering, ozone, and UV radiation, providing long-lasting performance in outdoor and exposed settings.
Sealing Properties: These strips offer efficient sealing and gasketing solutions, preventing leaks and contamination in mechanical and industrial systems.

Strips
Advanced Seals & Gaskets manufactures strips from a variety of materials: neoprene, EPDM, silicone, rubber, Plastazote, Polyethylene, Polyester, Nitrile, and more. These strips are fabricated in our state-of-the-art facilities using top-of-the-line machinery.
In-house production allows us to maintain rigorous quality standards and meet precise customer specifications for length, width, and thickness. We also provide self-adhesive-backed strips, applying the adhesive coating in-house to one or both sides.
Why use Viton Rubber Strip?
Viton rubber strips are a top choice for customers in need of high-performance materials that surpass the capabilities of other polymers like EPDM, Nitrile, or Neoprene. These strips excel in demanding applications.
With an impressive temperature range from -20°C to 275°C, Viton rubber strips maintain their physical and mechanical properties when exposed to water, acids, petrol, chemicals, and oil. They exhibit excellent resistance.
Viton rubber strips are particularly favored in the automotive, aerospace, oil and gas, and chemical industries. Furthermore, an FDA-approved grade is accessible for applications in food and beverage processing.
Different Grades
At Advanced Seals & Gaskets, we have strong relationships with various material suppliers and manufacturers, allowing us to provide additional grades of Viton rubber strips. Some of the most popular variants are outlined below:
Viton Rubber-Type B: Similar to Type A but with a higher fluorine content, Type B exhibits enhanced resistance to fluids, sulfur dioxide, greater flexibility after heat exposure, and a broader temperature range from -30°C to +300°C. This variant is employed in demanding sectors like chemical and power generation.
Viton FDA Grades: Available in blue or white, FDA-grade Viton rubber is ideal for food and pharmaceutical production, even in high-temperature environments. It showcases exceptional resistance to animal fats, oils, acids, chemicals, and petroleum.
