From life-saving devices to essential aircraft and fuel system components, we provide custom-molded rubber solutions to your requirements.

Our manufacturing processes meet the needs of demanding industries, with complete traceability at every stage of production. RD Rubber is ISO 9001:2015 certified, AS 9100:2016 certified, and ITAR and Department of Defense (DOD) Joint Certification Program (JCP) certified. We comply with NIST 800-171 requirements and provide certification of conformance for every shipment of products. Learn how RD Rubber can serve your organization with engineered-quality rubber solutions.

Aerospace

RD Rubber manufactures aircraft seals and gaskets for critical-to-function aerospace applications. Our solutions ensure consistent cabin pressure, negate the risk of fluid and air leaks, and provide better protection for sensitive component assemblies. This can extend time between maintenance checks, seal failures, or breakdowns. We work with Viton, EDPM, and silicone to make components used in avionics, cabins, engines, fuel systems, and hydraulic systems across the aerospace industry. These include:

Seals
Gaskets
Grommets
Latches
Valves

Our products meet MIL-SPEC requirements and other industry standards, as well as customer specifications. In addition to manufacturing, we provide support during every stage of product development and production.

Military & Defense

RD Rubber is proud to support military, contractors, and Department of Defense operations with quality engineered custom-molded rubber products which are produced in our California facility. Our rubber components meet or exceed MIL-SPEC standards for flame resistance, temperature resistance, strength, and other key characteristics. Our extensive range of custom-molded rubber products include::

Gaskets
Grommets
Housings
Latches
O-Rings
Seals

Poppet assemblies
Diaphragms
Connectors and buttons
Cases
Covers
Flappers

Plungers
Shells
Switches
Vacuum cups
Valves
Boot pads

We support projects ranging from prototype development to large-scale production of existing designs. We can also create hard-to-find and out-of-production gaskets for legacy or custom equipment.

Space & Satellite

Space and satellite capabilities continue to evolve at a rapid pace. RD Rubber Technology Corporation manufactures custom-molded rubber parts and components for the space industry including avionics systems, rocket boosters, launch vehicles, exploration equipment, and other hardware applications. High-quality seals and gaskets are critical to maintain reliable performance and extended service life.

Seals and gaskets in space or satellite applications are subject to extreme forces, temperatures, radiation, and the total vacuum of space. Rubber components need to withstand the harsh environment without degrading, turning brittle, or failing between maintenance cycles. Our sealing solutions meet or exceed standards established by the United States Space Force (USSF) and other government agencies. Depending on project specifications, we use high-performance elastomer materials such as EPDM, neoprene, or silicone to ensure low outgassing and low compression set, optimal temperature resistance, and resistance to chemicals ranging from hydraulic fluids to solvents.

Some of the most common custom-molded rubber solutions we provide for the space and satellite industry are:

Covers
Diaphragms
Gaskets
Grommets
Raceways
Seals
