It is true the harder Neoprene material will last longer in petroleum based environments; however, the EPDM material will give a much greater life expectancy due to its flexibility in a clean dry environment. By utilising the SP25 Air Bleed Adapter on the VC2515 to VC2555 feed control units the standard EPDM seals should be protected against the petroleum based fluids giving the greater life expectancy.
