EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) rubber gaskets are a widely used synthetic rubber sealing material favored for its excellent weather, ozone and chemical resistance.
Carbon Steel: Typically used for general applications.
Stainless Steel: For environments where corrosion resistance is required.
Alloy Steels: Used in applications requiring high strength or high temperature resistance.
Advantage:
Weather Resistance: EPDM rubber has good resistance to UV, ozone and aging and is suitable for outdoor applications. Chemical resistance: good resistance to acids, alkalis and certain solvents, but not suitable for contact with petroleum-based liquids. Flexibility: maintains good flexibility at low temperatures and can effectively fill gaps and prevent leakage. Cost-effective: EPDM is generally more economical than other sealing materials and has low maintenance requirements.
Scope of Application
Automotive industry: Widely used in automotive seals, engine seals and cooling system components due to its high temperature and chemical resistance. Construction: In windows, doors and roofing applications, EPDM gaskets provide an effective seal against water and air leakage. HVAC systems: In heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems, EPDM gaskets are used to seal joints and connections to ensure efficient system operation. Industrial applications: In chemical plants and manufacturing facilities, EPDM gaskets are used to seal pipes and vessels to prevent leaks.
