Material properties

The EPDM material also has good general resistance to chemicals.

Resistance to non-polar plasticisers and solvents (e.g. mineral oils, petrol, fuels and aromatics such as toluene) is low. Constant contact with these media should be avoided.

Short-term contact during the installation phase with the open fiame does not cause any impairment of the material properties.
