EPDM Rubber vs. FKM Rubber
Both EPDM rubber and FKM rubber are thermoset elastomers (rubber). There are 7 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (5, in this case) are not shown.
For each property being compared, the top bar is EPDM rubber and the bottom bar is FKM rubber.
