Nitrile rubber gaskets are renowned for their exceptional resistance to fuels, oils, and grease, making them the preferred choice for the automotive, aerospace, and oil industries. Alongside this chemical resistance, nitrile gaskets offer robust physical properties, including abrasion and tear resistance. However, it is important to note that nitrile is not suitable for use with ketones and provides poor ozone and weathering resistance.

Key Benefits of Nitrile Rubber Gaskets

  • Chemical Resistance: Superior resistance to most fuels, oils, and grease.
  • Physical Properties: Excellent abrasion and tear resistance.
  • Oil and Fuel Resistance: Unlike many other rubber compounds, nitrile resists swelling when exposed to oil and fuel, maintaining its sealing capabilities even in harsh environments.
  • Temperature Range: Performs well in high-temperature conditions, ideal for engines and other high-temperature machinery.
