Water/steam installations
Seals for district heating systems and hot water or steam installations.
Railway and industrial
Components for severe thermal variation, without contact with oil.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why are EPDM gaskets chosen for outdoor applications?
EPDM has a saturated polymer chain, which gives it excellent resistance to ozone, UV and weathering, typically operating between -50°C and +150°C.
Do EPDM gaskets resist mineral oils?
No — EPDM has poor resistance to mineral oils and hydrocarbons. For applications involving oil exposure we recommend NBR gaskets.
What industrial applications use EPDM gaskets?
Steam or hot-water installations, gaskets exposed to weathering in construction, and railway/industrial components subject to severe thermal variation without contact with mineral oils.
What information should I send for an EPDM gasket quote?
The technical drawing or a physical sample, plus the working temperature and the exposure environment (outdoor, steam, water). We prepare the technical quote based on these.
