O-ring seal KAN-therm 15 mm FPM (Viton) — model 6119401

O-ring seal KAN-therm 15 mm FPM (Viton) — model 6119401 is a precision elastomer sealing element with a 15 mm inner diameter made from fluoroelastomer (FPM/Viton). It is designed for use in piping systems, fittings and assemblies where resistance to elevated temperatures, oils, fuels and many chemicals is required. The O-ring delivers a compact, resilient sealing profile that maintains elasticity and sealing integrity under thermal and chemical stress.

Advantages

The fluoroelastomer (FPM/Viton) composition offers broad chemical compatibility and high temperature stability compared with standard rubber materials. The 15 mm internal diameter and precise molding ensure consistent dimensions and reliable sealing performance in static and low-dynamic applications. The material resists swelling and degradation when exposed to oils, fuels and many aggressive media, extending service life in demanding installations.

Suitable for

• Sealing pipe connections and fittings in heating and cooling systems
• Applications with exposure to oils, fuels and hydraulic fluids
• Industrial installations requiring heat- and chemical-resistant seals
• Plumbing assemblies and equipment with moderate mechanical load

Key specifications

• Inner diameter: 15 mm
• Material: Fluoroelastomer (FPM / Viton)
• Elastomer properties: high temperature resistance and chemical resistance
• Typical applications: static and low-dynamic sealing in piping and fittings
• Form: circular O-ring cross-section

How to use

Install the O-ring into the designated groove or sealing surface ensuring the ring is clean and free of debris. Lightly lubricate with a compatible lubricant if required to avoid twisting or pinching during assembly. Align mating parts carefully and apply even compression to achieve a uniform seal. Verify compatibility of the FPM material with the specific media and operating temperature of the system before prolonged exposure.

Usage recommendations

Store the O-ring in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and ozone sources. Inspect seals periodically for signs of hardening, cracking or extrusion; replace if deterioration is observed. Avoid exposure to chemicals known to attack fluoroelastomers outside the recommended media list and keep within the recommended temperature range for reliable performance.
