- HIGHLIGHTS
The real name for EDPM foam Sponge Rubber is Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer. This rubber sponge foam is used in many general gasket/seal outdoor applications where oil resistance is not required. EPDM Foam Rubber has excellent ozone, UV light resistance, and weather resistance.; These foam and rubber blends are co-polymers of Neoprene and EPDM Foam, which offer the properties of both grades of materials. The blend ratio's dictate the properties to a certain extent. Such foams are becoming the predominant grades for industry. They are replacing both pure Neoprene and EPDM as a good general purpose grade of sponge rubber or foam.; Used where low resistance to oil and UV/Ozone is necessary but a degree of fuel and oil resistance.; Flame Retardant classification to UL94 HF 1 is available. The foams come with or without a self adhesive backing and can be cut into coils for sealing tapes.
