EPDM Rubber Seals
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber seals are commonly used in a wide range of industries for sealing and gasketing applications. They are valued for their excellent properties and versatility. Here are some key points about EPDM rubber seals: 1. **Material Composition**: EPDM is a synthetic rubber compound created through the polymerization of ethylene, propylene, and a diene monomer. This unique composition gives EPDM its specific properties. 2. **Weather Resistance**: EPDM rubber is known for its exceptional resistance to weathering, UV (ultraviolet) radiation, ozone exposure, and temperature fluctuations. This makes it well-suited for outdoor applications where it must endure harsh environmental conditions. 3. **Temperature Range**: EPDM rubber can operate effectively 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 range. 4. **Chemical Resistance**: EPDM rubber exhib
