Precision custom moulding of rubber products that incorporate special rubber formulations and mould making is a service provided by Rubber Industries.
It contains an easily understood, brief description of the most popular base polymers along with durometer range, useful temperature range, useful properties, typical applications and cost.
Because there are infinite variations to all base polymers, Rubber Industries' guide to the selection criteria will help the designer achieve a correct answer quickly.
The CD categorises polymer performance characteristics for easy evaluation.
These include fluid resistance, temperature resistance, hardness, shrinkage, abrasion resistance, elongation, modulus and cost.
A moulding tolerance chart shows typical part sizes, minimum tolerances and possible secondary operations needed for a successful part design.
For designers needing a custom rubber moulder, Rubber Industries provides complete rubber prototypes as well as large-volume production using injection, transfer, compression and liquid silicone injection moulding processes.
The company has complete in-house custom compound formulating and mixing as well as mould building capabilities.
The company also provides experienced engineering assistance for product design and development.
