GIRLING BRAKE FLUID Resistant O-Rings and Seals
Girling Brake Fluid is also known as DOT 4 brake fluid, and is a polyalkylene glycol ether based hydraulic fluid. It is used in the braking systems of automobiles and motorcycles in order to transfer pressure from the driver's foot to the brake calipers. When exposed to Girling Brake Fluid, rubber can become brittle and prone to cracking and tearing due to its high boiling point, as well as its ability to strip away the rubber's natural oils. Additionally, prolonged exposure to Girling Brake Fluid can cause rubber to become swollen, leading to a decrease in its dimensional stability.
EPDM (EP, EPR, Ethylene-Propylene Rubber)
EPDM o-rings, or ethylene propylene o-rings, are a family of synthetic elastomers with lower cost steam and chemical resistance, particularly for applications involving solvents, acids and other mild chemicals. Marco Rubber has the world’s largest inventory network of EPDM o-rings and made on demand custom manufacturing often without tooling fees, so the EPDM o-rings you need are always available. Whether it’s for water systems, braking systems, medical, pharmaceutical, food or dairy use, you can count on Marco Rubber to deliver your o-rings fast and efficiently.
