Rubber weatherstrip (EPDM or TPE) seals the gap between the vehicle body and its glass or doors. Without a protective coating the surface wears quickly, sticks in hot weather and squeaks as the glass moves. Sipiol is applied on the weatherstrip production line to give a low-friction surface, abrasion and weather resistance, and a consistent appearance.
Parker LORD also offers Sipiol UV, a UV-cured electrical insulation coating for electric vehicle components such as heat sinks and cooling plates โ the fast-curing alternative to the JMC-700K listed on our CoolTherm page.
