CPI and Power Generation Environments

Viton® is the most specified fluoroelastomer for demanding process environments. For over 40 years, Viton® has been producing reliable, long-term service. Flue duct expansion joints made from Viton® fluoroelastomers perform in high heat and in corrosive flue gases. In order to help assure long-term performance, it is necessary for buyers and construction engineers to specify parts made from Viton®
