Silicone Rubber Gaskets (-67° F to +500° F)
Rubber compression molding forms uncured rubber into a desired shape. First, the elastomer is pre- heated until pliable and then put into an open mold cavity. Closing the mold forces the rubber to fill the cavity, where the elastomer is keep under heat and pressure until cured.
Silicone Sponge Gaskets (-67° F to +500° F)
Injection molding feeds uncured plastic from a hopper into heated barrel. The material is then pushed by a screw-type plunger into a heated chamber. This material flows through a gate and runner system into mold cavity. The mold remains at the proper temperature until the plastic is cured.
Poron® Gaskets (-40° F to 195° F)
Rubber to metal bonding is a means by which rubber is mechanically bonded to a metal insert during the molding process. Rubber to metal bonding is typically used for the isolation of noise and vibration in automotive and engineering applications. Rubber to metal bonded parts can be used in valve assemblies, rollers and shafts. Other applications that employ rubber to metal bonded products include mounts for motors, general rubber to metal bonded parts for the rail and transport industries and locomotive suspension parts.
