Seals made of EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) are highly durable and versatile. EPDM seals offer excellent resistance to extreme temperatures, making them ideal for a wide range of applications. Whether in automotive, construction, or industrial settings, these seals provide exceptional sealing properties against water, air, and dust. EPDM seals also exhibit exceptional elasticity, allowing them to effectively withstand compression and maintain their shape over time. Moreover, EPDM's resistance to UV radiation, ozone, and chemicals ensures the longevity and performance of these seals in demanding environments. With their reliability, flexibility, and resilience, EPDM seals are a trusted choice for sealing solutions across various industries.

Features and Benefits:

The biggest draw for using EPDM is for how well it performs outdoors. EPDM is very weatherproof meaning that it has a good resistance to UV rays, ozone, aging, abrasion as well as EPDM being the most waterproof rubber there is. This material is also steam resistant, it can operate at temperatures of up to 200°C without air. At temperatures of up to 120°C EPDM has similar properties to silicone, it is strong, can adhere to metals easily and has low electrical conductivity. Finally, EPDM is great at insulating and reducing noise, these are two of the reasons EPDM is so often used in the Automotive industry.

Industries:

The most common industry you will find EPDM used in will be the automotive industry. This is because of its versatility when it comes to being used in automobiles, from being able to be used in the door and window seals, hoses, belts in the engine to O-Rings that will be used throughout the entirety of the vehicle. However because of EPDM being extremely waterproof you will also find it being used in drinking water systems. This is due to its chloramine and chlorine resistance.

Summary:

• Excellent water and steam resistance.

• Excellent weather resistance (UV rays, ozone).

• Great abrasion and tear resistance.

• Good versatility in uses, from a garden hose to O-rings in car engines to roofing membrane.

• Good temperature range, -50°C to +150°C.
