EPDM edge protection profiles
Durable EPDM edge protection profiles for optimum performance
Discover the durability of EPDM for your edge protection requirements
When it comes to protecting edges, our EPDM edge protection profiles are the first choice for durability and reliability. EPDM (ethylene propylene diene rubber) is a synthetic rubber developed specifically for its excellent resistance to extreme weather conditions, UV radiation and ozone. Ideal for applications requiring high resilience, our EPDM edge protection profiles deliver outstanding performance across a wide temperature range and against numerous chemicals.
Material properties of EPDM edge protection profiles
EPDM is known for excellent flexibility and elasticity, even under demanding conditions. It retains its mechanical strength over long periods and shows very little ageing. Its elastic properties provide an excellent fit and effective sealing, making it a preferred material for edge protection applications.
Temperature range
EPDM edge protection profiles offer exceptional temperature resistance. They can withstand temperatures from approximately -40°C to +120°C. This wide temperature tolerance makes them ideal for locations with extreme climatic conditions.
Chemical resistance
EPDM is resistant to many chemicals, including various acids, alkalis, phosphates and numerous other chemical compounds. This chemical resistance is particularly valuable in environments where the profiles may be exposed to harmful substances.
Applications
EPDM edge protection profiles are suitable for many applications:
Automotive industry: use as sealing profiles for doors, windows and boot lids.
Construction: sealing windows, doors and roof structures.
Marine applications: protecting edges on boats and ships from salt water and extreme weather conditions.
Mechanical and plant engineering: sealing and protecting edges where resistance to temperature and chemicals is required.
