[Gagar]

Hi,

Please help me!
I recieved an RFQ, wich include some EPDM material.
Due I'm not a master on these type materials (maybe my english is not so good too - I'm working on it)I ask for your help!

EPDM to ASTM D200 4MAA 510 A13 B13 C12 - What does it mean?
Can you advise me a named material?

Thanks

It took me 30 seconds on google to find a significant amount of information.

Give it a try before you ask others to invest time.

What is an RFQ other than another TLA

The standard is ASTM D2000 not D200. EPDM is a type of thermoset rubber (elastomer).

ASTM D 2000 is available for US$45 from ASTM International at:

EPDM to ASTM D2000 4MAA 510 A13 B13 C12 - What does it mean?

the 4mAA 510 A13 etc....designates the type and class, each alpha-numberic group rates it as a different charateristic
If you have the ASTM D2000 it will explain it all.
