Outdoor Waterproof Nut with 316 SS & UV-Resistant EPDM | IP68/IP69K for 15-20 Year Service Life
1.Waterproof nuts Quick Detail
Designed specifically for outdoor communication and energy equipment exposed to intense sun, heavy rain, salt spray, and extreme temperatures. Our waterproof nuts use UV-resistant and hydrolysis-resistant premium seal materials (e.g., black EPDM) paired with corrosion-resistant 316 stainless steel bodies to meet the challenge of 15-20 years of outdoor service life. The optimized sealing structure withstands IP68 immersion or IP69K high-pressure, high-temperature water jetting, making it a core component ensuring the long-term reliable operation of critical infrastructure like 5G antennas, PV systems, and outdoor cabinets.
2.Waterproof nuts tProduct Description
The destructive power of outdoor environments is gradual and comprehensive. Ordinary rubber cracks, hardens, and loses elasticity under UV exposure; day-night temperature swings cause condensation accumulation at sealing interfaces; salt in coastal air accelerates metal corrosion. Our solution tackles these challenges at the material level: using carbon-black filled, UV-resistant EPDM compounds; designing seal pre-compression to compensate for stress relaxation from long-term aging; applying passivation treatments to the nut body for enhanced corrosion resistance. We not only meet standard tests but focus on performance in real, complex outdoor environments.

3.Waterproof nutsroduct Features & Advantage
|
Feature |
Advantage to You |
|
All-Weather Material Science & Long-Term Weatherability |
Seal materials undergo 1000+ hours QUV accelerated aging tests with mechanical property change rate <20%. This directly translates to 10+ years of maintained sealing function outdoors, significantly reducing maintenance and warranty costs and enhancing end-product brand reputation. |
|
Enhanced Sealing for High-Pressure Wash & Immersion |
To meet IP69K (80°C hot water, 100Bar, 0.3m distance) or IP68 (prolonged immersion) requirements, we offer enhanced solutions like wider sealing faces, low-friction coatings, or dual-sealing structures, ensuring sealing integrity under extreme cleaning or flood conditions. |
|
Fault-Tolerant Design for Installation Imperfections |
Outdoor installation conditions may be suboptimal (e.g., uneven sheet metal, paint, scratches). Our seals can be made from “self-compensating” soft materials (Shore A 50°) or designed as “lip seals” to better fill micro-imperfections, improving field installation first-pass success rate and reliability. |
|
Complete Corrosion Protection System |
We recommend the combination of “A4-80 (316) Stainless Steel Nut Body + Anti-Salt Spray Seal”, providing the highest level of dual protection against corrosion and sealing failure for high salt spray (C5 level) coastal or de-icing salt environments, avoiding galvanic corrosion risks. |
