Greene Tweed Chemraz

Excellent chemical resistance for demanding environments and processes

Greene Tweed, a leading global manufacturer of high-performance sealing solutions and engineered components, announces the introduction of Chemraz 541, a universal-purpose, high-strength black compound engineered for reliability in demanding environments and applications such as those found in the Chemical Processing and Oil & Gas industries.

Boasting superior strength and good compression set resistance, Chemraz 541 is ideal for demanding applications. Additionally, it offers remarkable chemical resistance, particularly in the presence of acids, amines, aromatics, distilled water, and steam. Chemraz 541 can operate at low temperatures of 3°F /-16°C and maximum temperatures up to 446° F /230°C.

Chemraz 541 is a great choice for applications requiring higher loads and offers better performance due to its excellent tensile strength and modulus. Moreover, its low outgassing values reduce the risk of deposits on sensitive surfaces, while its high elongation values ensure easy installation of o-rings. These features make Chemraz 541 an excellent choice for a variety of applications.

Chemraz 541 is suitable for mechanical seals, compressors, valves, and mixers/ agitators, centrifuges, analytical instruments, reactors, and pumps commonly found in processing industries. Chemraz 541 is readily available as o-rings, including large-diameter o-rings, and slabs. Custom geometry is available upon request.
