EPDM Rubber Seals
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber seals are widely used for their excellent sealing and gasketing properties. These seals are known for their durability, flexibility, and resistance to environmental factors. Here are some key characteristics and common applications of EPDM rubber seals: **Key Characteristics:** 1. **Weather Resistance:** EPDM rubber seals are highly resistant to weathering, making them suitable for outdoor and exposed applications. They can endure a wide range of temperatures and are not easily affected by sunlight, rain, or temperature fluctuations. 2. **UV and Ozone Resistance:** EPDM rubber exhibits excellent resistance to ultraviolet (UV) radiation and ozone exposure, making it ideal for outdoor applications where UV and ozone can cause degradation in other materials. 3. **Chemical Resistance:** EPDM rubber is resistant to various chemicals, including acids, bases, and polar solvents, making it suitable for applications in various industrial enviro
