E.P.D.M. (SE/B) (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber extrusions are developed for the automotive industry to withstand the rigours of compression, heat, cold, water, ozone, UV light, abrasion and aging. EPDM rubbers have exceptional memory which means that the sections will resume their original shape after long periods of compression, such as can be experienced in infrequently used doors and windows.The closed cell sponge Raven EPDM strips are extruded in separate dies and are not slit, thus giving a smooth, tough, nonporous skin. Where designated: Classified SE/B (self extinguishing / burn) rate to SAE J 369, ISO 3795 Service temp.- 40ºC to 70ºC. TPR (Thermo Plastic Rubber) Also referred to as TPE (thermo plastic elastomer) Similar to and exceeds some performance characteristics of E.P.D.M. rubber. Added UV inhibitors. Service temp. - 40°C to 100°C. Anodising Specification An anodised protective finish is applied to all visible aluminium extrusions, unless otherwise specified. Colour, satin clear (silver) or medium bronze. Architectural perimeter seal extrusions are anodised 15 microns and Threshold plates are anodised 25 microns for maximum durability. Mill finish Mill finish is the raw finish (not anodised) of the aluminium, as it has been manufactured from the mill. Colours - Finish Raven polyester enamel finish can be colour matched to virtually any colour sample. This finish outperforms most finishes, including powder coating, in the critical areas of colour choice, durability, flexibility and hardness.		Colours are available subject to negotiation at a premium, to special order.They can be ordered for aluminium and RIGID PVC extrusions. The majority of Raven seals are fastened using zinc plated, self tapping, cross recess head screws of the appropriate size.These are supplied with the product. Fixing holes are usually pre-drilled and many are slotted to allow the seals to be fitted accurately. This allows adjustment and compensation for building movement.Where fasteners are visible, they are colour matched to the finished extrusions. When choosing your Raven seal, you should consider:- does it provide the required protection? does it provide that protection without impeding the normal use of the door? is it compatible with the construction of the door and other hardware? is it suitable for the projected level of use, ie. light, medium or heavy? You may find that a door will be required to fulfil several functions at once, such as security, fire and weather control. If this is the case, you will need to consider seals which will achieve the desired objectives but not interfere with other door hardware. Suitability Is it suitable for the door configuration? single leaf, butt hinged inward or outward opening two leaves, butt hinged inward or outward opening		one only active leaf rebated or plain meeting stiles revolving sliding bi-fold pivot hung, single or double wood, metal, glazed roll-up garage door tilt-up garage door windows: casement, sash, hopper.
