  • High temperature resistance

Filcoflex B.V.’s EPDMas is an EPDM antistatic black FDA 65° Shore A is a rubber material sheet from rolls. EPDMas is used for a number of purposes, to cut custom gaskets and to make flexible sleeves among other things.

EPDMas is an electro antistatic EPDM rubber. The rubber is black because carbon is added to the EPDM raw material before extruding it in to sheet material. The addition of carbon makes the EPDM rubber dissipative for electricity, this prevent the electrostatic charging of the sleeve or gasket made from this sheet material. The sheet is a roll material, the roll are 1200mm wide and have 10 meter length.

EPDM has a good solvent, acid and alkali resistance, and a good general chemical resistance. EPDM has a higher temperature resistance than most plastics (e.g. Poly Urethane) or natural rubbers.

Pressure Resistance for Flexible Connectors

0,34 Bar / 5.0 PSI For temperatures up to 90 °C / 195°F. Please see “Operating Pressure Guide” for further information. We recommend using the shortest possible connector for applications where increased pressure and/or high temperature is expected. Please contact us for more information.

Weighing Applications

High volume weight and capacity weighing and dosing applications please see “weighing and dosing guide” for further information.

Chemical Resistance
