EPDM is an elastomer based on ethylene-propylene-diene rubber (EPDM), which can be used for U-cups, lip seals and packings. EPDM has an outstanding resistance to hot water, steam, washing agents and polar organic solvents. SSP EPDM is not resistant to mineral oil and other un-polar media. The stability to weathering, ozone and ageing is good. If used in glycol-based brake fluids, national regulations have to be adhered to.
Ethylene-Propylene can be used for sealing phosphate ester hydraulic fluids such as Skydrol. Not suitable for petroleum based fluids, Ethylene-Propylene is highly effective for use with steam, acetone, dilute acids and alkalies. Specially compounded Ethylene-Propylene can be made suitable for automobile brake systems. Temperature range from -20° to +300° F. Always available in Phthalates Free, with Certification.
