Sealing profile EPDM round with groove

The profile is made on the basis of ethylene-propylene-diene rubber (EPDM) with inorganic and organic additives. Thanks to its compact structure it does not let air through and has practically no water absorption, which makes it a reliable seal even in more demanding conditions.

EPDM excellently withstands weather influences and within the temperature range of -40 to +100 °C it retains its physical, mechanical and chemical properties. In the short term it withstands exposure to temperatures up to +130 °C, but premature ageing of the material must be expected.

The surface of the profile is smooth, the colour is black and it is standardly produced in a hardness of 70 °ShA. The round shape with a groove makes fitting the seal into a joint easier.

Main advantages

• Weather resistance - EPDM withstands UV radiation, ozone and the outdoor environment over the long term.
• Wide temperature range - usable from -40 to +100 °C, in the short term up to +130 °C.
• Air impermeability - the profile does not let air through and has practically no water absorption.
• Smooth black surface - a clean appearance and simple fitting into a joint.
• Sold by the metre - you buy exactly as many metres as you need, with a minimum order of 1 metre.
• Made to measure - by agreement, production of a shape according to the customer's specific needs is possible.

Use

• Sealing of light fittings.
• Sealing of expansion joints.
• Sealing when covering with polycarbonate.
• Seals in air-handling systems.
• Sealing of structural and construction parts in the construction and engineering industry.
• Applications in the food and automotive industries.

Frequently asked questions

What temperature does the EPDM profile withstand?

The profile withstands temperatures in the range of -40 to +100 °C without a change in properties. In the short term it withstands exposure to temperatures up to +130 °C, but premature ageing must be expected.

How is the profile sold and what is the minimum order?

We supply the profile as cut-to-length material, i.e. by the metre. The minimum order is 1 metre, so you order exactly the length you need.

Is production of a different shape or size possible?

Yes. EPDM sealing profiles are available to order in further shapes and sizes listed in the downloadable catalogue. By agreement, production of a shape according to the customer's specific needs is also possible.
