I've seen some silicon ones on ebay from time to time.

The Japanese ones are brilliant, at least equal to OEM or better.

Who does the Japanese ones?? Or is it a japan thing only?

Gordon at Catmint will have done his research - he invests lots of tome & money to produce some very good parts when no-one else is

Nevertheless EPDM is the wrong choice for oil and grease resistance.
Another spec sheet....

I am pretty sure OEM spec was for nitrile rubber

The mini spares ones linked also fit track rod ends I have used them on some nos old track rod ends so hopefully will be ok

Apologies - the good MiniSpares ones are polyurethane not silicone

Good material, wrong part. Those are gaiters for some track rod ends and suspension knuckle joint.
