Things to Think About
When determining which rubber product best suits your application, ask yourself the following:
- What is the maximum temperature requirement?
- What level of chemical resistance is required?
- What level of tensile strength is required?
- Does the application require a fabric reinforcement?
- What are the specification requirements?
- What level of ozone resistance is required?
| Neoprene | Nitrile | EPDM | Pure Gum | Viton | Silicone | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Maximum Temperature | 200° | 225° | 225° | 160° | 350° | 500° |
| Oil Resistance | Good | Excellent | Poor | Poor | Excellent | Fair |
