Gallagher Fluid Seals’ customer is a global manufacturer of communications products, instruments, and sophisticated electronic components.
GFS collaborated with our FFKM supplier-partner to develop a low-temp 60 durometer compound that satisfied the needs of the customer’s rigorous temperature, environmental, and flexibility requirements.
PROBLEM
The customer was having low-temperature flexibility issues with their existing FFKM compensation bladder becoming rigid and not meeting performance requirements.
SOLUTION
Gallagher engineers worked with the customer to develop a custom-molded FFKM compensation bladder.
RESULTS
The part fit perfectly into the customer’s end product, fulfilled all application specifications, and has been used in production successfully for several years.
