SAE AMS7379-2008 Rubber: Fluorocarbon Elastomer (FKM) 70 to 80 Hardness, Low Temperature Sealing Tg -40 °F (-40 °C) for Elastomeric Seals in Aircraft Engine Oil, Fuel and Hydraulics Systems
1.1 FormThis specification covers high temperature, compression set and fluid resistant fluorocarbon elastomer material to beused in the form of O-rings, compression seals, O-ring cord, and molded-in-place gaskets for aeronautical and aerospaceapplications.1.2 ApplicationThese products have resistance to a variety of gas turbine engine oils, including high thermal stability (HTS) oils, fuels,and hydraulic fluids, but usage is not limited to such applications. Each application should be considered separately. Thisfluorocarbon (FKM) has a service temperature range of -60 to +400 °F (-51 to +204 °C) in air.1.3 Safety - Hazardous MaterialsWhile the materials, methods, applications, and processes described or referenced in this specification may involve theuse of hazardous materials, this specification does not address the hazards, which may be involved in such use. It is thesole responsibility of the user to ensure familiarity with the safe and proper use of any hazardous materials and to takenecessary precautionary measures to ensure the health and safety of all personnel involved.
