FLUORODYN™ CAULK MADE WITH VITON®
Thermodyn Corporation is the ideal solution when it comes to bonding fluoroelastomer parts and protecting surfaces from corrosion in virtually all environments. This revolutionary caulk, based on Viton® fluoroelastomer and produced in conjunction with DuPont Dow elastomers, provides excellent sealing for flanges or lining enclosure .
Fluorodyn ™ Caulk made with Viton is compounded with 75% solids, making it an easy-to-apply, ready-to-use caulk. This advanced chemical compound system provides excellent corrosion resistance and increased resistance after curing to virtually all chemical substances, including nitric, sulfuric and hydrochloric acids. Fluorodyn™ Caulk made with Viton is recommended in harsh, corrosive places that require flexibility, leak-proof and a high resistance to permeation.
Fluorodyn ™ Caulk is available only from Thermodyn in the following sizes: 320ml and 850ml caulking tubes with re-sealable applicator.
