EPDM U-shaped rubber seal 5x10x1.5 is a compact EPDM rubber profile designed for edge protection, cushioning, vibration reduction and sealing support.
With a 5x10x1.5 mm profile, the seal is suitable for applications where a relatively small U-shaped rubber profile is required. EPDM provides good resistance to water, ozone, UV exposure and weathering, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor technical applications.
The product can be used in doors, aluminum frames, glass frames, electrical cabinets, industrial machinery, vehicles, containers and technical equipment.

Key advantages
Compact U-shaped profile
The compact profile is suitable for narrow installation areas where a large sealing profile cannot be used.
Good EPDM elasticity
EPDM provides good elasticity, allowing the profile to grip compatible edges and provide cushioning during operation.
Weather resistant
EPDM is widely used in weather stripping, automotive seals and industrial rubber profiles because of its resistance to ozone, UV exposure and weathering.
Water resistant
The material provides good resistance to water and moisture when the correct profile and installation method are used.
Edge protection
The U-shaped rubber profile can help reduce direct contact, impact, abrasion and vibration at material edges.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an EPDM U-shaped rubber seal 5x10x1.5?
It is a compact U-shaped EPDM rubber profile designed for edge protection, cushioning, vibration reduction and sealing applications.
Is EPDM U-shaped seal waterproof?
EPDM has good water resistance. Actual sealing performance depends on the profile design, compression and installation.
Can it be used outdoors?
Yes. EPDM has good resistance to ozone, UV and weathering, making it suitable for many outdoor applications.
Is EPDM heat resistant?
Yes, within the operating range of the specific EPDM formulation. The actual working temperature should be confirmed before selection.
Is EPDM resistant to oil?
EPDM is not the preferred material for continuous exposure to mineral oil and fuels. NBR is generally more suitable for oil-contact applications.
Can EPDM U seals be custom manufactured?
Yes. Custom profiles can be considered according to physical samples, drawings and specified dimensions.
Are other sizes available?
Yes. Various U-shaped EPDM sizes can be supplied or developed according to the installation requirements.
Can the seal be supplied by the meter?
Depending on the product and order quantity, it can be supplied by meter, roll or cut-to-length.
