Our advanced technology and processes ensure that we cost-effectively produce custom rubber mouldings without compromising on quality.
Rubber Bellows
Rubbertech manufactures all rubber bellows to customer design utilizing compression moulding technology and injection moulding. We can produce small tools to accommodate low quantity requirements or larger tools with automatic pop-up cores for much larger quantities.
Rubber Bellows are often used to form a seal or offer protection to moving parts, the amount of travel the bellows offer is determined by the number and size of convolutions in the design. This also determines the cost of the tool and parts. Our Bellows can be moulded in a variety of rubber materials to suit the customer’s application, from medical devices to industrial packaging equipment.
Instrument Covers
Rubbertech manufactures moulded custom rubber instrument covers for customer design. Similar to the covers you purchase to protect your mobile phone these mouldings offer impact protection to expensive electronics and can also enhance the appearance of a product. Material selection is very important for these mouldings, silicone is very good where the cover is designed to enhance the visual design of the product as it can be printed and spray coated similar to keypads, however, if the product is being used in harsh environments then a more durable material is selected and often the design of the cover reflects a more robust appearance.
Protective Rubber cover mouldings can be moulded in a variety of materials depending on the operating environment of the product, for most products we can use silicone rubber as this allows for easy printing and spray finishes. However, if the product is to be used in a harsh environment we would also consider EPDM, Neoprene, Nitrile and HNBR materials.
To ensure a good fit of the protective rubber cover we can advise how to calculate the correct internal dimensions to offer a good tight fit, alternatively, we can mould threaded inserts into the moulding that are chemically bonded, so the cover can be screwed directly onto the product.
Rubber Gaiters
We supply rubber gaiters manufactured to customer design, these are used often with joysticks on control panels to protect and seal the part from dust and liquids. These gaiter mouldings can be produced in several different materials, determined by the end user environment.
Food Industry
The unique properties of food-grade rubber materials being non-toxic, non-allergenic, resistant to mould and water, odourless, tasteless and highly durable means it is commonly utilised by the food industry to enhance food safety, production efficiency and product presentation.
Rubbertech manufactures standard & bespoke rubber mouldings for food processing and in-house transportation, rubber seals for appliances, bespoke baking mats, moulds and other commissioned food-grade rubber mouldings.
