EPDM

EPDM is a shortening of Ethylene-Propylene-Diene-Monomer. This is a gasketing material that retains its shape well for longer periods of time because of its good aging properties. The material is well suited for environments with extreme weather outside-conditions.
EPDM rubber is a UV-stabilized material which makes the material very ozone-resistant.
An EPDM is a good alternative for gaskets exposed to water, since the material retains its shape for a longer period of time compared to other rubber qualities.
The material can be sulphur- and peroxide cured with different benefits. A sulphur cured EPDM is soft, elastic, resilient and a more mechanical gasket material. The peroxide-cured EPDM is more pure and has better chemical and temperature resistance.
The material is available as a sheet or roll-material and can be molded or extruded into seal strips, bushings, cable-throughs, clips seals and O-rings.
The material comes in many different hardnesses to best suit your application.
In the rubber industry we speak of a shore/durometer-value. The most common hardness is around 65-70Sh, but is also available in 25-90Sh where softer or harder options are needed.

The material can be made with a wide set of classifications depending on the purpose of the gasket.
For food industry the EPDM can be obtained with an FDA-classification for gaskets in clean room and food industry products.
For drinking water products the material can be obtained in classifications such as; WRAS, WRC and ELL for seals in HVAC products such as pipe fittings, valves, water taps and heat pumps.
Cabseals EPDM may be obtained UL94 graded where fire-resistance is needed. UL94 is an American fire-classifications and used often in telecom products and enclosures.
The material is possible to obtain with a minimized electrical conductivity for electrical insulation and gasket solutions for electrical products.

EPDM rubber is most common in a black color but other colors can be obtained when gaskets and seals are molded.

Cellular Polyethylene (GC)

The material can be had in different densities that affects insulating properties and the softness.
GC means that the surface is coarse and the surface is usually a matter of preference.

Cellular Polyethylene (FC)

The material can be had in different densities that affects insulating properties and the softness.

Cellular Polyethylene UL94

The Firegraded cellular polyethylene is a popular choice in telecom and electronic industry.
A material we store in block form which means it can be easily split into any desired thickness.

Soft-Polyethylene

A very soft slow recovery PE-foam. That’s very suitable for sealing uneven surfaces.
Popular insulation in the ventilation industry when it does not need to rebound continuously.

PVC Foam

A soft, elastic and slow recovery foam with open cells. Well suited for sealstrips and gaskets.

Poron® - Microcellular PUR-Foam

CABSEAL has been selected by the quality focused Rogers Corporation to be a preferred converter of their high end PUR-Foam Poron.

PE-Layer

A cost-efficient insulation or packaging-material with good cushioning properties.

EPDM

Excellent aging and ozone properties.
Good acid and alkali resistance, as well as good heat and cold resistance.

Chloroprene (CR)

Good weather, ozone and oil resistance.
The allround option for gaskets, well suited for general industry environments.

Nitrile (NBR)

Excellent oil and good petrol resistance.
We store this material both flat and patterned (ribbed).

Cork, rubber bound

Rubber bound, good oil and petrol resistant cork rubber with a Nitrile (NBR) base.

SBR

Cost efficient solution, wear resistant.
Our NR/SBR material can be acquired in patterned and flat sheeting.
Typically used as floor-mats, or on shelves for protection.

Natural Rubber (PARA)

Soft, very elastic and extremely durable.
You often find this material in the toughest of environments. Such as the drilling and mining
industries.

Abrasive Rubber

Very durable material, good physical and mechanical properties.
Like natural rubber, this tough material you find in the most physically demanding industries.

Abrasive Rubber

Very durable material, good physical and mechanical properties.
Like natural rubber, this tough material you find in the most physically demanding industries.

Silicone

High temperature resistance, for both heat and cold.
Excellent aging properties.
FDA approved.

Fluorine Rubber (Viton®)

High quality and very resistant to acids, oils and solvent products.
Have a high heat tolerance.

Polyethylene, PE

Cost efficient plastic and low friction makes it well suited for example slide rails and spacers.
Could be had in black or natural colour.

Polyamide, PA (Nylon)

The material is very durable which makes it suitable for washers and spacers.
Washers made from Polyamide is also lighter and more cost efficient than most metal substitutes.

Polyesterfilm, PET (Mylar®)

Polyesterfilm has excellent electrical properties typically used as isolations in electrical enclosures.

PTFE (Teflon®)

PTFE has one of the lowest friction on solid materials. It also possess good chemical and acid resistance.

Polyurethane, PUR

A plastic material that reminds of rubber in flexibility and elasticity. Well suited in tough environments such as heavy duty machinery and drilling.

Polyester Foam

Excellent in absorbing high-frequent sounds such as screeches and machine noise.

Polyester/ether Filter (PPI)

Often used for filtrating dust, grease and coarser particles. The polyester/ether filter can be acquired in various PPI (pores/inch).

Bonded Foam

Recycled polyester/ether foam that’s been milled together with a bonding material. A cost effective solution.

O-rings

We distribute o-rings in American and European standard to be as wide as possible in our rubber assortment.

Molded Parts

We have a lot of moulded parts customized made for customers in all varieties of rubber and shapes.

Extruded Profiles

Extruded profiles is a general term that includes door seal strips, window seals, o-rings, cords and general profiled rubber.

Bitumen

Bitumen is an excellent structure-borne sound absorbent because it has a very high volume weight.

Bitumen Paper

Bitumen Paper is a firm bitumen material. Structure-borne sound absorbing is its prime feature.

Textiles / Felt

Textile or felt is generally a good option for high frequent sound absorbing purposes.
Excellent as squeak and rattle-sound dampening.

Synthetic Fiber

Synthetic fiber-material for high pressure and temperature demanding gaskets.
