Plasma-resistant special fluoro elastomer

TOMBO™ No. 2675-FE, 2685-FE

BLAZER™ O-ring-FE

BLAZER O-ring-FC (BFC) and BLAZER O-ring-FE (BFE) are made of special fluoroelastomers (special FKM) that are plasma resistant and inexpensive. Thanks to Nichias’ blending technologies, the plasma reduces the weight of the rubber and reduces the occurrence of cracks, and at the same time, it is significantly less expensive than perfluoroelastomer (FFKM).

Forte

It is a material that is not susceptible to suffering a reduction in weight or cracks due to plasma exposure.
As it has excellent non-stickiness, it can also be used with movable parts without any problems.
It has a low metal content, thereby reducing any particle-related problems.

Application

Of semiconductor & LCD manufacturing equipment, the sealed parts that are exposed to the plasma environment
Parts that have problems in terms of lifespan and particles with FKM.
Parts for which the cost and performance are too great with FFKM.
