Vertex AC01 is an acrylate copolymer (ACM) compound, compounded with carbon black to deliver reliable resistance to engine oils, transmission oils and weathering. It’s built for automotive applications where continuous exposure to hot oils is routine, offering a cost-effective sealing solution without the maintenance headaches that come from oil-degraded seals.

ISMAT manufactures Vertex AC01 using acrylate copolymer compounded with carbon black, validated through in-house testing to ensure consistent quality across every batch. At 60±5 Shore A, this is a moderately soft compound, offering good flexibility for rubber-to-metal bonded parts and O-rings used in engine and transmission environments.
This ACM compound is specifically formulated to resist engine oils and transmission oils over a wide operating range of -40°C to +150°C, while also holding up well against weathering and UV exposure. That combination makes it a practical, economical choice for automotive components where continuous oil contact would quickly degrade standard rubber compounds.
If your application involves sustained exposure to automotive oils alongside outdoor weathering, Vertex AC01 offers a dependable, cost-effective option. Contact ISMAT to discuss whether this grade fits your specific requirements.
