Ethylene Propylene (EPDM) O-Rings (0.103 Section)

Ethylene Propylene (EPDM) O-Rings (0.103 Section): Precision Sealing for Water, Steam, and Outdoor Environments

Ethylene Propylene (EPDM) O-Rings (0.103 section) from TFM are engineered for static sealing in compact assemblies exposed to moisture, steam, ozone, and environmental aging. Made from 5600-70 grade EPDM rubber, these small-profile O-rings deliver consistent performance across a wide temperature range of –51°C to +150°C, making them ideal for low-pressure systems, electrical housings, and weather-exposed applications.

This 0.103-inch cross-section is ideal for instrument ports, medical devices, or miniature valves, providing a tight, durable seal while resisting deformation over time thanks to its low compression set.

Key Specifications:

Material: 5600-70 EPDM Rubber
Color: Black
Durometer Hardness: 70 Shore A
Cross-Section Diameter: 0.103 inches
Temperature Range: –51°C to +150°C

Performance Highlights:

Excellent Resistance to steam, hot/cold water, ozone, and UV
Retains elasticity in sub-zero temperatures and during thermal cycling
Maintains seal integrity with a low compression set
Non-conductive, ideal for use in moisture-sensitive electronics
Not compatible with oils, greases, fuels, or hydrocarbon-based fluids

Common Applications:

Small static seals in humidifiers, autoclaves, and steam lines
O-rings for sensor ports, LED enclosures, and miniature vacuum fittings
Electrical gaskets for outdoor lighting, solar power units, and junction boxes
Water-compatible seals for fluid transfer, chlorinated water, or RO systems

TFM’s EPDM O-Rings (0.103 section) are a go-to solution for compact sealing in non-oil environments, where moisture, aging, or steam exposure could compromise standard elastomers.
