Rubber, since ancient days, has been a popular natural substance that is used extensively in a wide range of products. Rubber can take various forms, shapes, and sizes depending on its intended use. Its remarkable tensile strength, tear-resistance, and resilience make it a versatile product in hundreds and thousands of applications and across diverse industries. Indeed, we use, see and feel several rubber products in our everyday life.

How is natural rubber produced?

The milky fluid from mature rubber trees is tapped by plantation workers. A small incision is made to extract a pure substance called latex. Latex is subsequently turned into rubber. Today, due to the growing needs of rubber in over 50,000 different products, tons of natural and synthetic rubber are produced to cater to a wide range of products worldwide.

Silicone rubber Injection Molding and Nitrile rubber parts 

Silicone rubber and nitrile rubber are types of synthetic rubbers that are widely used and have excellent properties that make it a valuable commercial and industrial product. Owing to its unique properties of durability, oil heat and moisture resistance with gas permeability and high flame retardancy, both silicone and nitrile rubbers are highly beneficial for use in nearly all industries such as electrical and electronic equipment, automobiles, food products, sports equipment, and oil & gas sectors. However, nitrile rubber is recommended for use in indoor applications away from direct sunlight, while silicone rubber can withstand very high temperatures and can be used for indoor and outdoor applications. The properties of other rubber bellows such as EPDM and HNBR differs on the environment of your application.

Rubber Bellows

Made from synthetic rubber, rubber bellows are a form of expansion joint that is used to absorb noise and thermal movements as well as vibration removal in equipment, such as engines, pumps, condensers, etc. While rubber tubes have the unique feature of being able to transport water, air, gases, and even wires from one point to the other, rubber bellows can be used as metal expansion joints for lateral or angular movement or in the case of shifting location. Rubber bellows successfully protect movable joints and shafts and optimise the wear and tear of moving parts.

Bellows are highly flexible and hence can extend and compress under pressure with an average life of 1 million cycles.

Designed to withstand high temperatures of up to 200 degrees Celsius and pressure up to 40 bar.
Water, oil and chemical resistant.
100% leak proof
