EPDM-made O-Rings, eternal youth
EPDM O-Rings stand out thanks to their excellent behavior in the open air. The seals made in this material are extremely resistant to aging, even in very severe weather conditions.
EPDM O-Rings retain their properties even when subjected to large temperature differences. This feature mostly explains the presence of EPDM in the industry in general but also in the world of construction and in marine applications.
EPDM (Ethylene-Propylene-Diene) has a very wide temperature range, good resistance to ozone, weather and aging and is also particularly suitable for contact with hot water and steam. In addition, EPDM-made O-Rings are good electrical insulators. Finally, peroxyde-cured EPDM has a better resistance to temperature and chemical products and achieve higher compression values than sulfur-cured EPDM.
