EPDM rubber seals
EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) rubber seals are widely used in various industries for sealing applications. Here are some key aspects and considerations regarding EPDM rubber seals: 1. **Material Properties:** - **Weather Resistance:** EPDM rubber is known for its excellent resistance to weathering, UV radiation, and ozone exposure. This makes it suitable for outdoor applications where exposure to the elements is a concern. - **Temperature Resistance:** EPDM remains flexible over a wide temperature range, from very low to high temperatures. It can withstand both cold and hot environments, contributing to its versatility. - **Chemical Resistance:** EPDM exhibits good resistance to various chemicals, acids, and alkalis, making it suitable for applications where exposure to different substances is expected. - **Water Resistance:** EPDM rubber provides effective water resistance, making it commonly used in applications where a watertight seal is crucial. - **Electr
