CD simplifies rubber design
Rubber Industries helps part engineers to choose the correct polymer with its new Rubber Selection Guide CD FREE for the asking.
Applications not intended for a particular polymer are also called out in the selection chart of the CD.
Designers can focus on a specific performance characteristic using this CD selector.
Hardness, fluid resistance, temperature resistance, abrasion resistance, shrinkage, elongation, modulus and cost are areas the designer can zero-in on to make a design choice.
For fluid applications, the CD contains a chart listing Rubber Industries' compounds recommended for different characteristics and performance criteria.
The CD has been developed out of the company's more than 50 years experience in the custom rubber moulding business.
