Custom-molded rubber parts are high-performance components made from thermoset elastomer materials that are engineered and manufactured to meet critical requirements in demanding industries, including aerospace, defense, military, government, medical, food and dairy processing, and life sciences. Typical critical-to-function applications of custom rubber products include O-rings, gaskets, seals, valves, grommets, over-molded poppets, and diaphragms.
Here is an overview of custom rubber products utilized in critical-to-function applications.
O-rings are circular seals used in pumps, engines, cylinders, connectors, and valves to prevent gases or fluids from leaking. Custom-molded O-rings sit in a specially engineered groove and undergo compression when surfaces or parts interlock. The key strength of O-rings is their ability to return to their original shape once compressive forces are removed.
Gaskets are types of custom rubber products used to seal the space between two mating surfaces. Custom-molded gaskets are an economical and reliable sealing solution that can withstand harsh operating conditions. They seal pumps and engines in mechanical systems to prevent leaks and product contamination.
Custom-molded rubber seals help prevent the leakage of gases or fluids. They are commonly used in pumps, engines, and other mechanical systems.
Rubber grommets are used to protect or strengthen an opening or offer insulation to an object passing through the opening. These custom-molded rubber parts help protect cables, hoses, and wires from abrasion and damage. They reduce vibration and protect the cables and wires from chafing on rough surfaces.
