Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR, EPDM)

EPR copolymer ethylene propylene and ethylene-propylenediene rubber (EPDM) terpolymer are particularly useful when sealing phosphate-ester hydraulic fluids and in brake systems that use fluids having a glycol base.

Heat resistance

• Up to 150°C (302°F) (max. 204°C (400°F)) in water and/or steam)

Cold flexibility

• Down to approximately -57°C (-70°F)

Chemical resistance

• Hot water and steam up to 149°C (300°F) with special compounds up to 260°C (500°F)

• Glycol based brake fluids (Dot 3 & 4) and silicone-based brake fluids (Dot 5) up to 149°C (300°F)

• Many organic and inorganic acids

• Cleaning agents, sodium and potassium alkalis

• Phosphate-ester based hydraulic fluids (HFD-R)

• Silicone oil and grease
