How Do I Choose the Best Material for the Job?
If you want your rubber components to perform properly, you need to pick the ideal rubber compound, but this is not as easy as it sounds. To truly pick the best material, you need to have a complete understanding of how each compound would function in your industry. When selecting a rubber compound, you must take the following factors into account:
- Industry
- Design specifications
- Environmental conditions
- Operating temperature range
- UV and chemical resistance
- Installation methods
However, many rubber compounds have similar properties, so how are you supposed to know which one to choose?
Your first choice might be EPDM, which is not necessarily a bad choice. EPDM rubber is incredibly versatile and durable under the right conditions. It offers high resistance to UV, ozone, weathering, aging, and numerous corrosive chemicals, but if your industry involves exposure to oils and fuels, it is essentially useless.
Qualiform Rubber Molding helps you avoid any confusion with their full range of rubber compounds and material selection experts. Our team can provide you with professional recommendations based on the environmental conditions of your application. This means you never have to worry about choosing the wrong material for the job, and you always receive rubber parts that perform properly.
