EPDM Rubber Seals
EPDM, or ethylene propylene diene monomer, is a type of synthetic rubber commonly used in the manufacturing of seals and gaskets. EPDM rubber seals are known for their excellent weather resistance, heat resistance, and electrical insulation properties. Here are some key characteristics and applications of EPDM rubber seals: 1. **Weather Resistance:** EPDM rubber is highly resistant to weathering, ozone, and UV exposure. This makes it suitable for outdoor applications where the seals are exposed to the elements. 2. **Temperature Resistance:** EPDM rubber can withstand a wide range of temperatures, from -40°C to 120°C (-40°F to 248°F), making it suitable for both hot and cold environments. 3. **Chemical Resistance:** EPDM is resistant to many chemicals, acids, and alkaline substances, making it a good choice for applications where exposure to various chemicals is a concern. 4. **Water Resistance:** EPDM rubber has excellent water resistance, making it commonly used in sealing applica
