EPDM Rubber Seals
Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) rubber seals are widely used in various industries for sealing applications due to their excellent properties and versatility. EPDM is a synthetic rubber compound known for its resistance to weathering, ozone, UV exposure, and a wide range of chemicals. Here are some key characteristics and applications of EPDM rubber seals: ### Key Characteristics: 1. **Weather Resistance:** EPDM exhibits excellent resistance to weathering, ozone, and UV radiation, making it suitable for outdoor applications. It can withstand harsh environmental conditions without deteriorating. 2. **Temperature Resistance:** EPDM has a broad temperature range, remaining flexible at low temperatures and resisting heat at elevated temperatures. It can handle temperatures ranging from -40°C to 120°C (-40°F to 248°F). 3. **Chemical Resistance:** EPDM is resistant to a variety of chemicals, acids, and alkaline substances. This property makes it suitable for applications where ex
