EPDM Gaskets

Precision die-cut epdm components. ISO 9001 certified. Fontana, CA since 1971.
Custom EPDM rubber gaskets for water, steam, outdoor, and ozone-exposed applications. Sulfur and peroxide cures available.

Key Properties

  • Durometer: 10A – 90A
  • Weather & ozone resistant
  • UV & sunlight resistant
  • Water & steam resistant
  • FDA grades available

Why specify EPDM for gaskets?

EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) is the elastomer of choice when the gasket is exposed to water, steam, weather, or ozone. Cannon Gasket die-cuts custom EPDM gaskets for plumbing, irrigation, HVAC, outdoor lighting, and pool and spa applications where UV, sunlight, and water are part of the service environment. Available in commercial, high-grade, military-spec, peroxide-cured, FDA, and cloth-inserted grades.

Properties of EPDM gaskets

Cannon Gasket cuts EPDM gaskets to your drawing in durometer and thickness specifications of 10A to 90A Shore hardness. Excellent resistance to ozone, UV, sunlight, water, steam, and brake fluid. Not recommended for petroleum oils, fuels, or hydrocarbon solvents.

EPDM tolerances and customization

Standard dimensional tolerances on EPDM gasketsland around ±0.010" to ±0.015" on OD and ID, depending on material durometer and thickness. Tighter tolerances are available on select grades. Cannon Gasket cuts EPDM to custom profiles in-house and matches lead times to your production volume. PSA backing, pad printing, custom packaging, and kitting are all on the menu when you need them.

How EPDM Performs in Water, Steam, and Outdoor Service

- Superior resistance to ozone, UV, and sunlight (no surface cracking over years of outdoor exposure). - Excellent water and steam resistance. - Good resistance to mild acids, alkalis, ketones, and alcohols. - Available in sulfur-cured (standard) or peroxide-cured (lower compression set, better high-temperature performance).

Where EPDM Gaskets Are Specified

Outdoor enclosures, irrigation valve seals, pool and spa equipment, HVAC components, plumbing flange gaskets, weatherstripping, brake-system seals (compatible with brake fluid), and any application that combines water exposure with sunlight or ozone.

When EPDM Is the Wrong Choice

EPDM is not compatible with petroleum oils, fuels, or greases. For oil or fuel contact, specify Buna-N or Viton. For high-temperature petroleum service, Viton.

Manufacturing Methods

Die-cut, rotary-cut for high-volume runs, steel-rule-cut for large or soft formats, lathe-cut from EPDM tube when thickness exceeds sheet stock. PSA backing and clean room production available.
