EPDM rubber seals
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber seals are commonly used in various applications for their excellent properties. Here are some key features and applications of EPDM rubber seals: 1. **Weather Resistance:** EPDM rubber is known for its outstanding resistance to weathering, UV radiation, and ozone exposure. This makes it suitable for outdoor applications where exposure to the elements is a concern. 2. **Temperature Resistance:** EPDM rubber has a broad temperature range, remaining flexible and effective in temperatures from -40°C to 120°C (-40°F to 248°F) or even higher in certain formulations. This makes it suitable for use in both cold and hot environments. 3. **Chemical Resistance:** EPDM rubber generally has good resistance to various chemicals, acids, and alkalis. However, it may not be suitable for applications involving petroleum-based oils and fuels. 4. **Water and Steam Resistance:** EPDM rubber is highly resistant to water and steam, making it commonly used in
