Metal carrier replacement via PP and EPDM reduces costs in automobile sealing profiles
von Dr Gupta Verlag
Today, motor vehicle seals that are applied to the bodywork need to satisfy many
different functions. In addition to their sealing effect, it is above all the dynamic
properties of the seal as well as its resistance to weathering and different temperatures that need to be taken into account.
Apart from the technical properties of the product, further factors such as recyclability, weight and manufacturing are becoming increasingly important. For this reason, the substitution for metal in many fields of automotive engineering is making ever greater advances.
