Unlocking Reliability Testing the UV Resistance of Aerospace Seals and Gaskets with Eurolab

In the high-stakes world of aerospace engineering, reliability is paramount. A single malfunction can have catastrophic consequences, from costly delays to devastating safety risks. When it comes to ensuring the integrity of aircraft systems, one critical aspect often overlooked is the testing of ultraviolet (UV) resistance in seals and gaskets.

UV exposure is a harsh reality for components exposed to sunlight or artificial lighting during flight, ground operations, or storage. Over time, UV radiation can degrade materials, leading to increased leakage rates, decreased performance, and even catastrophic failure. Eurolab understands the importance of safeguarding against these risks, which is why we offer Testing the UV resistance of aerospace seals and gaskets as a specialized laboratory service.
