AFLAS is a thermoplastic fluoroelastomer (TPFE) material that is often used in the manufacturing of O-rings. It is known for its excellent chemical resistance, high temperature tolerance, and low compression set. AFLAS is also resistant to a wide range of chemicals, including fuels, oils, acids, and solvents. Additionally, it has a low coefficient of friction and excellent electrical insulation properties. Due to these properties, AFLAS O-rings are commonly used in applications such as automotive, aerospace, and chemical processing industries.
