What are the significant advantages of EPDM sealing strips?
EPDM sealing strip is a sealing material made of EPDM as the main raw material and processed by special technology. Due to its excellent performance, it is widely used in many fields such as automobiles, construction, home appliances, industrial equipment, etc. The following will introduce the significant advantages of EPDM sealing strip in detail.
1. Excellent weather resistance
One of the biggest advantages is its weather resistance. EPDM material has strong resistance to UV, oxidation and ozone, and can resist the erosion of UV, ozone in the air and harmful substances in the atmosphere when exposed to outdoor environment for a long time. Therefore, it can maintain good performance for a long time in harsh environments such as direct sunlight, high temperature and wind and sun, greatly extending the service life.
2. Good high and low temperature resistance
EPDM has a wide operating temperature range. This feature enables it to maintain its sealing effect in extremely cold or hot environments. Whether in cold winter or hot summer, it can effectively maintain the sealing performance and will not shrink, crack or soften due to temperature changes.

3. Excellent chemical resistance
EPDM sealing strips have excellent corrosion resistance in many chemical media. It can resist the erosion of various chemical substances such as acids, alkalis, alcohols, greases, solvents, etc., especially in petroleum products and aqueous solutions. This chemical resistance of EPDM enables it to ensure long-term use without deterioration and ensure the sealing effect in occasions such as automobiles, industry, and construction that need to contact chemical media.
4. Excellent electrical insulation performance
EPDM material itself has good electrical insulation, so it plays an important role in the sealing of power equipment and electronic components. It can effectively prevent moisture, dust, oil, etc. from entering electrical components or lines, reduce the occurrence of electrical equipment failures, and ensure the safe operation of equipment.
EPDM sealing strips have become the preferred sealing material in many fields due to its outstanding advantages such as excellent weather resistance, high and low temperature resistance, chemical resistance, compression deformation resistance, excellent air tightness and water tightness, and good electrical insulation performance. Whether it is in automotive sealing, building window sealing, electrical equipment sealing, or some other industrial applications, it can provide a long-lasting and stable sealing effect to ensure the safety and durability of the equipment.
