Japanese Industrial Standard O-Rings are another popular classification system used around the globe. Published by the Japanese Standard Association, these o-rings are also categorized using the metric system. JIS O-Rings are used in many different fields, but typically are implemented in Japan's semiconductor, automotive and machine tool industries. EP is also known as: Eythylene Propylene, EPR, EPDM, EPT, E.

EP is an elastomer which is characterized by wide range of applications and good chemical resistance. Ethylene propylene compounds have good resistance to detergents, alkalis, mild acids, greases, silicone oils, and alcohols.
