Sarlink brand TPVs are EPDM/polypropylene-based elastomers that are easy to
process and color. The Sarlink family of products offers special grades for
sealing applications that have been tested to ASTM 864 and C509 (for foam
grades) standards. Consider the following checklist of advantages offered when
using Sarlink elastomers for your residential or commercial sealing
applications:
-
Tighter profile tolerances than EPDM but 20% lighter
-
Co-extrudable with rigid plastics which allows easier installation and
improved dimensional stability
-
Better long term compression set than EPDM, SEBS, or PVC compounds
-
Heat-welded corners eliminate expensive corner moldings and adhesives
-
Superior long term UV stability over EPDM and PVC and outstanding color
retention
-
Better low temperature performance than EPDM, PVC, and other TPEs
-
Superior overall weatherability than other traditional sealing materials
-
Wide processing window speeds and faster line speeds allow more cost-effective
profiles
What's more:
