EPDM rubber seals
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber seals are widely used in various industries for their excellent properties as sealing materials. Here are some key features and applications of EPDM rubber seals: 1. **Weather Resistance:** EPDM rubber is highly resistant to weathering, UV radiation, and ozone exposure. This makes it ideal for outdoor applications where exposure to sunlight and harsh weather conditions is common. 2. **Temperature Range:** EPDM rubber has a wide temperature tolerance, remaining flexible and effective in temperatures ranging from -40°C to 120°C (-40°F to 248°F) or even higher in specific formulations. This versatility makes it suitable for both hot and cold environments. 3. **Chemical Resistance:** EPDM rubber exhibits good resistance to various chemicals, acids, and alkalis. However, it is not recommended for use with petroleum-based oils and fuels. 4. **Water and Steam Resistance:** EPDM rubber is known for its excellent resistance to water and steam.
