VitonŽ is a proprietary type of fluoroelastomer rubber, manufactured by
DuPont Industries.
VitonŽ has one of the broadest ranges of chemical resistance in industry.
We use VitonŽ B grade, which is regarded as an ideal type for peristaltic
pump use. This combines excellent flexibility with high chemical resistance
and anti-ageing properties over a wide range of environmental conditions.

VitonŽ B is specified as a terpolymer of vinylidene fluoride, hexafluoropropylene
and tetrafluoroethylene and has a higher fluid resistance than VitonŽ A.
VitonŽ B is not a medical class material, and the resultant extruded tubing is
ideal for many industrial applications involving acids and oils.
