Ethylene propylene rubber (EPM)

Peroxydic cross-linking yields excellent hot water and steam resistance properties, very good resistance to atmospheric conditions such as UV rays, ozone and damp and good acid and alkali resistance. EPM O-rings are not resistant to aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbons or mineral oil products. Temperature range from -40 °C to +180 °C depending on type.
