Elastomers – Flexibility That Delivers Performance
Elastomers are plastics with elastic properties – they can be significantly deformed under tensile or compressive stress and then return almost completely to their original shape. They owe this “rubber-like elasticity” to their molecular structure: long, cross-linked polymer chains that stretch under load and then contract again.
With Filomer®, the Fietz Group offers a material line specifically developed for the most demanding industrial applications. Whether high-performance elastomers or fluoroelastomers – Filomer® combines excellent material properties with precise processing to deliver molded parts and, above all, seals that function reliably under extreme conditions.
