EPDM Rubber Seals
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber seals are commonly used in a wide range of industries for sealing applications. These seals are known for their excellent properties and versatility. Here are some key characteristics 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 unique composition gives EPDM its specific properties. 2. **Weather Resistance**: EPDM rubber is highly resistant to weathering, UV (ultraviolet) radiation, and ozone exposure. This makes it ideal for outdoor applications where it will be exposed to harsh environmental conditions. 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 is resistant to a variety of chemicals,
