Closed Cell Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) Foam
EPDM closed cell or crushed foam provides outstanding temperature, weather, and ozone resistance. It has good thermal and excellent insulating properties. Often used in electronics, automotive and construction they perform well in tough environments as gaskets, seals, weather stripping, and insulation.
Applications include: Sealing and cushioning gaskets, door and hood seals, copper tubing insulation.
- Excellent weather and UV resistance
- Wide operating temperature range
- Good heat resistance
- Good thermal insulator
- Excellent water seal
- Resists aging
