Can you supply small quantities of materials for research and development purposes?

Yes, we offer both bulk and small quantities of sputtering targets, evaporation materials, and spherical powders to support research, prototyping, and development projects.

Perfluoroelastomer (FFKM) Kalrez® O-rings (0.103 Section)

Perfluoroelastomer (FFKM) Kalrez® O-Rings (0.103 Section): Ultra-Miniature Sealing for High-Purity, High-Temperature Applications

Perfluoroelastomer (FFKM) Kalrez® O-Rings (0.103 section) from TFM are engineered for ultra-clean, high-performance micro-sealing applications in semiconductor, plasma, and chemical processing environments. Manufactured with Kalrez® 4079, these O-rings provide best-in-class resistance to corrosive chemicals, reactive gases, and thermal cycling up to 316°C, while maintaining low particle generation.

With a precise 0.103-inch cross-sectional diameter, this O-ring is ideal for compact and critical sealing points in gas delivery lines, miniaturized instrumentation, and UHV plasma chambers. Kalrez® 4079 offers excellent dimensional stability and very low compression set, making it the gold standard for demanding sealing applications requiring extreme chemical and thermal resistance.
