EPDM rubber seals
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber seals are widely used for their excellent sealing properties in various industries. Here's a concise overview: **1. Composition:** - EPDM is a synthetic rubber compound derived from the polymerization of ethylene, propylene, and a diene monomer. - The specific formulation can be tailored to achieve desired properties like flexibility, hardness, and chemical resistance. **2. Weather Resistance:** - EPDM rubber seals are known for their exceptional resistance to weathering, UV radiation, and ozone exposure. - This makes them suitable for outdoor applications where exposure to sunlight and harsh weather conditions is common. **3. Temperature Stability:** - Maintains flexibility and sealing properties over a broad temperature range, typically from -40°C to 120°C (-40°F to 248°F) or even higher in some formulations. - This temperature resistance makes EPDM seals effective in both hot and cold environments. **4.
