EPDM O-Ring cord
Description:
EPDM O-Ring cord is a continuous length of molded cord which have a round profile and allows for the fabrication of custom sizes of an O-Ring for a particular sealing application.The hardness of these sealing cords is 70 ShA.Sealing cords made of EPDM can withstand temperatures within the range of -40 to +120 ¡ãC.If exposed to steam a temperature of 150 ¡ãC should not be exceeded.The material of which these sealing cords are made is resistant to inorganic as well as organic solvents.These sealing cords are also resistant to oxidizing media such as alkali agents and ketones.
Advantages
Available in various cross sections,wide range of dimensions.
Can be used both for static applications.
Excellent electrical insulating properties.
Easy installation and removal.
Excellent resistance to steam,water,brake fluids (based on glycol),ozone,ageing and weathering.
Good resistance to steam and polar substances.
Application
The primary application for cords is as the basic material for joined O-rings.
They are similar to the O-ring in the way they are handled and applied.
They are used as static seals,e.g.
For sealing larger pipe unions,flange and as cover seals in container construction.
Cords are frequently used for on-site repairs,being joined together to provide the "customized" dimensions.
We supply EPDM O-ring cord to meet the various different O-ring cross sections found in all the International standards such as BS1806,BS4518,ISO 3601-1,DIN 3771-1,SMS 1588,JIS 2401,AS 568,NF T47-501. |
