EPDM O-Ring 170x2

Overview

The EPDM O-Ring 170x2 is a premium industrial sealing ring manufactured from high-quality EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) elastomer. It is specifically engineered for applications involving water, steam, compressed air and outdoor environments. EPDM provides exceptional resistance to ozone, UV radiation, oxidation and weathering, ensuring reliable sealing performance and long service life in demanding industrial applications.

Industrial Applications

The EPDM O-Ring 170x2 is widely used in:

• Water treatment systems
• Drinking water installations
• Pneumatic equipment
• HVAC systems
• Heating systems
• Cooling systems
• Steam applications
• Food processing equipment (when the specific compound complies with applicable regulations)
• Chemical processing equipment
• Agricultural machinery
• Industrial machinery
• OEM equipment and maintenance operations

It is particularly suitable for sealing applications exposed to water, steam and environmental conditions.

Construction

The O-ring features a precision circular cross-section measuring 2 mm, providing uniform compression within standard sealing grooves. This design ensures dependable static sealing and limited dynamic sealing while minimizing leakage, compression set and wear during continuous operation.

Material

EPDM is a premium synthetic elastomer specifically developed for sealing applications involving water-based media. It offers excellent resistance to:

• Hot and cold water
