How do I determine what compound to use to best service my application needs?
The material that is selected for a specific application depends on several factors.

Your best solution to finding the right compound for your application is to contact us. The trained staff of R.E. Purvis & Associates, Inc. will be able to isolate the compound that will best suit your application's needs.
What is a static application?
A static application is used to describe situations where the seal is located between two fixed components where no movement will be occurring. An example of a static application would be a face seal or gasket.
