EPDM Rubber Seals
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber seals are widely used in various industries and applications for their exceptional sealing and weather-resistant properties. Here's a closer look at EPDM rubber seals: **Material Properties**: 1. **Weather Resistance**: EPDM rubber seals are known for their excellent resistance to weathering, UV radiation, and ozone exposure, making them suitable for outdoor and exposed applications. 2. **Temperature Resistance**: They have a broad temperature range, typically from -40°C to 120°C (-40°F to 248°F), while maintaining flexibility and sealing performance. 3. **Chemical Resistance**: EPDM rubber has good resistance to a wide range of chemicals, including acids, alkalis, and some solvents. However, it is not recommended for use with petroleum-based oils and fuels. 4. **Water and Steam Resistance**: EPDM seals are highly effective at preventing the penetration of water and steam, which makes them ideal for plumbing, HVAC systems, and ste
