FKM Sleeve

FKM sleeve designed for plug sample preservation during laboratory testing. Manufactured using a straight vulcanization process, it provides excellent chemical resistance, dimensional stability, and reliable sealing under demanding pressure and temperature conditions.

Product Size

FKM Sleeves, commonly known as Viton® sleeves, are used in petrophysical laboratories and Special Core Analysis (SCAL) programs to provide effective confinement of core plug samples during high-pressure and high-temperature testing. Manufactured using a straight vulcanization process, they ensure reliable sealing, excellent dimensional stability, and consistent mechanical performance under demanding reservoir evaluation conditions. The FKM material offers outstanding resistance to hydrocarbons, chemicals, and aggressive testing fluids.

What is a Viton Sleeve and how is it used?

A Viton Sleeve is a durable protective layer used to encapsulate drill rock samples or core samples, particularly from soft or unconsolidated geological formations, ensuring their integrity during rock analysis and core analysis.

What are the main benefits of using a Viton Sleeve?

Its main benefits include safeguarding the structural integrity of core samples, preventing contamination during geological or oil & gas studies, and enabling accurate analysis by preserving delicate formations.

Is Viton Sleeve suitable for high-temperature applications?

Viton Sleeves are highly suitable for high-temperature applications and can withstand exposure to chemicals and oils, making them indispensable for demanding oil & gas and geological core analysis procedures.

Viton Sleeves withstand exposure to chemicals and oils?

Yes, Viton Sleeves are highly resistant to chemicals and oils, making them ideal for safeguarding drill rock samples and core samples during geological and oil & gas core analysis. Their durability ensures protection against harsh substances while maintaining the integrity of delicate formations. This reliability is critical for accurate rock analysis in challenging environments.
