EPDM Rubber Seals
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber seals are widely used for various sealing and gasketing applications due to their excellent properties and versatility. Here are some important features and applications of EPDM rubber seals: 1. **Material Composition**: EPDM is a synthetic rubber compound made from the polymerization of ethylene, propylene, and a diene monomer. This combination of materials gives EPDM its unique properties. 2. **Weather Resistance**: EPDM rubber is known for its exceptional resistance to weathering, UV radiation, ozone exposure, and temperature extremes. It can withstand outdoor conditions and exposure to the elements, making it ideal for outdoor applications. 3. **Temperature Range**: EPDM rubber can function within a wide temperature range, typically from -40°C to 125°C (-40°F to 257°F). It remains flexible and maintains its sealing properties within this temperature range. 4. **Chemical Resistance**: EPDM rubber has good resistance to various chemi
