EPDM rubber seals
EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) rubber seals are widely used for various sealing applications due to their excellent properties. Here are some key features and applications of EPDM rubber seals: **Key Features:** 1. **Weather Resistance:** EPDM rubber is highly resistant to weathering, UV radiation, and ozone exposure. This makes it ideal for outdoor applications where exposure to the elements is a concern. 2. **Temperature Resistance:** EPDM rubber exhibits good performance over a wide temperature range, typically from -40°C to 120°C (-40°F to 248°F). Some formulations can withstand even higher temperatures. 3. **Chemical Resistance:** EPDM is resistant to a wide range of chemicals, acids, and alkalis. However, it is not suitable for applications involving oils and hydrocarbons. 4. **Water Resistance:** EPDM rubber provides excellent water resistance, making it effective for sealing applications where preventing water ingress is crucial. 5. **Elasticity and Flexibility:*
