EPDM rubber seals
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber seals are commonly used for a variety of sealing applications due to their excellent properties. Here are key characteristics and applications of EPDM rubber seals: ### Key Characteristics: 1. **Weather Resistance:** EPDM rubber is highly resistant to weathering, UV radiation, and ozone. This makes it well-suited for outdoor applications where exposure to sunlight and the elements is a concern. 2. **Temperature Resistance:** EPDM remains flexible over a wide temperature range, from -40°C to 120°C (-40°F to 248°F). This flexibility allows it to maintain its sealing properties in both hot and cold conditions. 3. **Chemical Resistance:** EPDM exhibits good resistance to various chemicals, acids, and alkalis. This makes it suitable for applications where exposure to different substances is expected. 4. **Water Resistance:** EPDM is impermeable to water, making it an excellent choice for seals in applications where resistance to moisture i
