Services
Rubber-to-Metal Bonding
Precision rubber-to-metal bonding creates zero-leakage seals for aerospace and medical applications. We bond common and exotic combinations like Viton to stainless steel with tolerances as tight as +/- .002'. Our process ensures durability under extreme pressures (up to 500 PSI) and temperatures ranging from -65F to 500F, meeting military specifications for critical systems.
Custom Molded Parts
Custom rubber molding services produce complex components with close tolerances. Our 20-250 ton presses handle compression, transfer, and injection molding for parts up to 24" in diameter. We work with Buna-N, EPDM, silicone, and fluorocarbon materials, maintaining strict quality control through computerized optical inspection systems for aerospace and industrial clients.
Diaphragm Fabrication
Fabrication of fabric-reinforced diaphragms with variable effective areas up to 18" diameter. Our rolling diaphragms maintain constant effective areas throughout strokes while withstanding pressures as low as " water pressure. We produce flange bead seals and bonded metal backup plates to meet specific hole patterns, pressure requirements, and temperature tolerances.
O-Ring Manufacturing
Custom O-ring manufacturing using Buna-N, Viton, EPDM, and silicone compounds. We maintain extremely tight tolerances for aerospace and medical applications, producing both standard and non-standard sizes. Our in-house laboratory develops specialized elastomer formulations to meet military specifications while ensuring compatibility with various solvents and chemicals.
Elastomer Selection
Expert elastomer selection services optimize performance and cost-effectiveness. Our technical team recommends materials from over 100 proprietary formulations, considering chemical resistance, temperature ranges (-65F to 500F), and pressure requirements up to 500 PSI. We provide complete test reports to ensure compliance with aerospace and medical industry standards.
