Thermoplastics and composites specialist Greene Tweed has launched Fusion FKM 665, a new generation, ultra-low-temperature and chemical-resistant elastomer, specifically formulated to meet and exceed the requirements of Aerospace Material Specification (AMS) 7379 and AMS-P-83461.

With a temperature range of -57°C to 232°C, Fusion 665 achieves outstanding low-temperature performance without compromising high-temperature performance.

Wally Hajduczek, sealing systems product manager for aerospace, defence, and life sciences at the company said: “Prior to Greene Tweed’s Fusion 665, elastomer material composition resulted in trade-offs. Achieving optimal low-temp performance meant sacrificing high-temperature operating range, chemical compatibility, or dynamic sealing performance. Fusion 665 was developed to overcome existing limitations of comparable materials, such as NBR, FKM, or FVMQ (Fluorosilicone).”

Greene Tweed is a leading global manufacturer of high-performance thermoplastics, composites, seals, and engineered components.

The company has more than 150 years of technical expertise and commercial knowledge in a variety of markets, collaborating with customers to develop engineered solutions that meet challenging performance requirements and reduce total cost of ownership.
