E1549-70 O-ring for Potable Water applications
Parker’s E1549-70, an Ethylene Propylene (EPDM) sealing compound with a Shore A hardness of 70, is certified by the National Sanitation Foundation to meet the stringent requirements of the NSF 61 standard. This standard controls and minimizes the leaching and migration of rubber, plastic or metal materials into end-point devices and all components contained within the final liter of a water distribution system.
In addition to NSF 61, E1549-70 is also certified to other similar standards set by the United Kingdom’s Water Regulations Advisory Scheme (WRAS) and Germany’s Kunststoffe und Trinkwasser (KTW).
Product Highlights:
- An EPDM base polymer provides improved long-term service over nitriles in hot water applications
- Provides superior compression set resistance over other ethylene propylene compounds
- International certification (NSF 61, WRAS, KTW) allows for specification of one material for many different industries
Typical Applications
E1549-70’s superior compression set resistance, coupled with its ability to resist water treatment chemicals, makes it an ideal solution for high-volume sealing requirements in both hot and cold water applications. These include faucets, showerheads, aerators, water filtration components, irrigation systems, ice makers, water meters, valves, fittings and many others.
Features and Benefits of E1549-70
- An EPDM base polymer provides improved long-term service over nitriles in hot water applications
- Provides superior compression set resistance over other ethylene propylene compounds
- International certification (NSF 61, WRAS, KTW) allows for specification of one material for many different industries
- State-of-the-art manufacturing processes translate to greater high-volume cost efficiencies
