The Benefits of Bespoke Rubber Parts

Bespoke rubber parts offer many advantages when compared with off-the-shelf alternatives.

For a start, anyone requiring unique dimensions or shapes, or a specialist material, can choose an option to match their exact needs.

Custom rubber parts can provide vital components in many different industries such as aerospace, automotive and manufacturing to name but a few.

A bespoke rubber part is one that has been specially created to fit specific requirements. The ability to make one-off unique parts offers endless possibilities for manufacturing.

The sheer versatility of rubber materials means unique components can be produced to meet almost any specifications, providing a tailor-made solution for each application.

The advantages

Choosing a bespoke rubber part means you can improve the functionality of your machinery and equipment by installing a component that fits precisely. This can ensure optimum performance by reducing energy loss, preventing leaks, or providing an airtight and watertight seal, for example.

You can also design rubber parts to withstand extreme temperatures, harsh environments and exposure to chemicals and other substances. In financial terms, this can translate into reduced replacement and maintenance costs, saving money and time for your business.

The versatility of custom rubber parts means they can be moulded into almost any intricate design or complex shape that may be impossible with another material, which enables the design of new and innovative products that can give your business the edge over competitors.

Bespoke rubber gaskets

A rubber gasket is a small but vital component in many different applications.

We manufacture EPDM custom rubber gaskets from this extremely versatile rubber, with flame retardant, FDA approved and KTW approved options available.

Nitrile rubber gaskets provide resistance to fuel, oil and certain chemicals, while nitrile is also available in an FDA approved specification.

Silicone rubber gaskets are often used in food and drink applications, as silicone is suitable for use in extreme temperatures, while it also has very good resistance to weather and ageing.

Available in FDA approved options and fire retardant to NFF16-101 M2-F3 and UL94-VO standards; neoprene rubber gaskets provide flexibility and good chemical resistance over a wide temperature range.

Viton rubber gaskets offer outstanding resistance to acids, chemicals, oils and petroleum, even at high temperatures.

Our Metroscrape™ gaskets are made from 100% recycled, high-quality tyres. This durable and sustainable material is reinforced with fibre for added strength and resistance, providing superior tear resistance.

Coruba’s CNAF (Compressed Non-Asbestos Fibre) rubber gaskets are manufactured using a blend of non-asbestos fibre and top-quality rubber to create outstanding sealants.

We also offer neoprene/nitrile bonded cork sheets to make rubber gaskets that have excellent resistance to transformer oils and fuels.

Choose SBR rubber gaskets if you require a general-purpose material that can be used in a variety of applications, as it is resistant to tearing, ozone and inorganic chemicals, making it suitable for use in the construction and automotive industries.

Our fabric reinforced rubber gaskets have great tensile strength and tear resistance, while our PVC gaskets have excellent oil, grease and fuel resistance.

Bespoke rubber extrusions

Rubber extrusions are used for many different applications including noise control, weather exclusion, vibration dampening or as a finishing product. They can be found in daily-use applications such as doors, windows and vehicles.

We can manufacture and supply custom rubber extrusions in a wide range of compounds such as EPDM, nitrile, neoprene, silicone, Viton and many more – available in a variety of shapes and styles to create rubber seals, edge trims, solid cord and self-grip profiles.

Rubber mouldings

Our custom rubber moulding service utilises materials including EPDM, neoprene, natural rubber, nitrile and more.

Coruba provides bespoke rubber mouldings for many commercial and industrial sectors, satisfying a multitude of applications. From our purpose-built, in-house manufacturing facility, we use various injection and compression presses to create components that match client specifications.

Our products include rubber cones, caps, spider couplings, footrests, bushings, O rings, handles, diaphragms and washers.

Bespoke rubber strips

Our custom rubber strips are available in a wide range of different materials including butyl, CNAF, EPDM, EPR, hypalon, natural rubber, neoprene, expanded sponge and foam, nitrile, polyurethane, PVC, SBR, silicone and Viton. They can be fashioned to match specific requirements.
