EPDM O-rings, or Ethylene Propylene O-rings, belong to a group of synthetic elastomers that offer cost-effective steam and chemical resistance. They are particularly suitable for applications that involve solvents, acids, and mild chemicals.

Common Names

Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer Rubber, EP/SBR, EPT, EPR

Trade Names

Dutral®, Nordel®, Vistalon®

Description

EPDM O-Ring Properties

  • It is cost-effective.
  • It is highly resistant to chemicals, temperature, weathering, ozone, and steam.
  • It has good electrical insulation properties.
  • It has a low compression set.
  • It has excellent tear and abrasion resistance.
  • It is highly flexible and durable.

EPDM O-Ring Features

  • Excellent chemical, thermal, ozone, and UV radiation resistance.
  • Highly resistant to water and steam <300°F.
  • Excellent electrical insulation properties.
  • Good permeation resistance.
  • Fair shorter term resilience.
  • Resistant to acids, bases, greases, phosphate ester hydraulic fluids, silicone oils, glycol brake fluids, cleaning agents, ketones, and brake fluids.
  • Good compression set resistance.
  • Good heat stability.

EPDM O-Ring Limitations

  • Low resistance to tear and abrasion.
  • Poor compatibility with aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons.
  • Low pressure resistance.
  • Swelling in certain fluids, especially aromatic hydrocarbons and some polar solvents.
  • Not suitable for extremely high or extremely low temperature applications.
  • Not resistant to alternate fuels, mineral oils, common fuels, concentrated acids, petroleum oils, non-polar solvents, halogenated solvents, and kerosene.

EPDM O-Ring Service Temperature*

-50°C (-58°F) to 150°C (302°F)

(*Depends on the formulation of the material and the application.)
