Key Features:
Durable Construction:
Manufactured from expanded EPDM, a closed-cell sponge material, this seal is engineered to provide reliable and long-lasting performance. The closed-cell construction prevents the absorption of water, making it ideal for applications where watertight seals are crucial.
Smooth, Neat Finish:
The smooth outside skin of the sponge seal ensures a neat and professional appearance, making it an excellent choice for situations where the seal might be visible, such as on hatches, lockers, enclosures, and doors. Its clean, finished look makes it ideal for use in both functional and aesthetic applications.
Effective Watertight Seal:
When compressed by approximately 30%, this sponge seal creates a strong and long-lasting watertight barrier. Whether used on boats, vehicles, or machinery, it will help protect against moisture ingress, keeping components safe and dry.
Wide Compatibility:
The seal is highly compatible with a range of materials. It can be easily bonded to most clean flat surfaces, including metal, wood, and plastic, ensuring a tight fit for various sealing needs. For best results, we recommend using a high-quality contact adhesive such as S136 or A262 (both available on our website).
Applications:
This Sponge Seal - 9.5mm x 19mm is perfect for sealing hatches, lockers, enclosures, doors, and cabinets. Its versatility makes it suitable for use in a range of industries, including:
Marine: Ideal for boats and yachts where water resistance is essential.
Automotive: Perfect for sealing doors, windows, and compartments in vehicles.
Industrial: Used in machinery, enclosures, and other industrial applications to maintain cleanliness and prevent leakage.
Material Properties:
EPDM Construction: EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) is a high-performance material known for its durability and resistance to various environmental conditions.
Chemical and UV Resistance: EPDM is highly resistant to UV, air, ozone, and most chemicals, making it suitable for outdoor and industrial applications.
Temperature Range: The seal operates effectively in temperatures ranging from -40°C to +120°C, ensuring performance in both extremely cold and hot environments.
Compression Set Resistance: Unlike many other materials, EPDM does not suffer from compression set, ensuring the seal retains its shape and function even after prolonged use.
Limitations:
While EPDM is highly resistant to most chemicals and environmental factors, it is not recommended for use in environments where it may come into contact with oil or fuel, as these substances can degrade the material over time.
Conclusion:
The Sponge Seal - 9.5mm x 19mm is an exceptional product designed to provide reliable and durable sealing in a wide variety of applications. Its closed-cell, water-resistant construction, coupled with excellent UV and chemical resistance, makes it ideal for sealing hatches, doors, enclosures, and other components in marine, automotive, and industrial settings. With a temperature range from -40°C to +120°C, this seal offers long-term protection in harsh environments, ensuring a tight seal with no risk of compression set.
For a high-quality, versatile sealing solution, the Sponge Seal - 9.5mm x 19mm is the ideal choice.
