Fluoroelastomeric Materials
Certain seals and gaskets (e.g. crankshaft oil seal) on SAM machines contain fluoroelastomeric materials
such as Viton, Fluorel and Technoflon. Fluoroelastomeric materials subject to high temperatures can
produce highly corrosive hydrofluoric acid.
THIS ACID CAN SEVERELY BURN.
New fluoroelastomeric components at ambient temperature require no special safety precautions.
Used fluoroelastomeric components whose temperatures have not exceeded 300C require no special safety
precautions. If evidence of decomposition (e.g. charring) is found, refer to the next paragraph for safety
instructions.
DO NOT TOUCH COMPONENT OR SURROUNDING AREA.
Used fluoroelastomeric components subjected to temperatures greater than 300C (e.g. engine fire) must be
treated using the following safety procedure. Make sure that heavy-duty gloves and special safety glasses
are worn:
Ensure that components have cooled then remove and place in plastic bags.
Thoroughly wash contaminated area with 10% calcium hydroxide or other suitable alkali solution, if
necessary use wire wool to remove burnt remains.
Thoroughly wash contaminated area with detergent and water.
Contain all removed items/materials, gloves etc used in this operation in sealed plastic bags and
dispose of in accordance with Local Authority Regulations.
DO NOT BURN FLUOROELASTOMERIC MATERIALS.
If contamination of skin or eyes occurs, wash the affected area with a continuous supply of clean water or with
calcium hydroxide solution for 16-60 minutes. Get medical attention immediately.
