Weather Resistant EPDM Rubber O Rings , Auto Parts Sealing White O Rings

EPDM is a copolymer of ethylene and propylene. Ethylenepropylene-diene rubber (EPDM) is produced using a third monomer and is particularly useful when sealing phosphate-ester hydraulic fluids and in brake systems that use fluids having a glycol base.

Both o-rings and gaskets can be made from EPDM materials.

Names: Ethylenepropylene-diene rubber, EPDM, EPR, EPM
