As an industry-leading company in all areas of rubber manufacturing, we can develop parts for virtually any application. We have manufactured countless custom rubber extrusions for a diverse array of industries. Whether you work in automotive, medicine, electronics, food processing, or even aerospace, we can deliver the high-quality components you need.

Here at Qualiform, we offer more than 40 years of experience in all things rubber molding. You will have the opportunity to discuss your application requirements and ideas with rubber extrusion experts. They will provide guidance throughout the process offering design and material recommendations to ensure you receive the best product for the job. We take all properties into consideration when designing your rubber extrusions including sealing, insulation, impact absorption, and various resistances to maximize performance and longevity.

Rubber extrusions are a uniquely versatile class of rubber components that can come in a seemingly endless selection of shapes and sizes. Many products in your home use rubber extrusions without anyone realizing it. Things like rubber trim, rubber seals, floor matting, connectors, bumpers, and weather-stripping are all rubber extrusions. For industrial situations, warehouses and facilities apply rubber extrusions in the form of rollers, sheets, and rods to absorb loud noises and intense vibrations.

Rubber extrusion applications also extend as far as pencil erasers, cars, and bicycles. In fact, they are even used in the construction of space shuttles and submarines. With their superior flexibility, durability, and impermeability, it is no wonder they are so common. The only challenge in creating the best rubber extrusions for your application is choosing the right rubber compounds.

How do you go about designing the perfect rubber extrusions for your particular application? Finding the ideal rubber compound requires a full understanding of the environmental factors of your industry, but even then, many compounds have overlapping properties. How do you know which is the best one?

You might be thinking about using synthetic rubber in the production of your rubber gaskets. This is not necessarily a bad choice. Synthetic rubber works in many different industries due to its exceptional resistance to abrasions, impacts, water, and extreme temperatures. It is also more affordable than natural rubber compounds. However, if you fail to recognize the presence of acids, oils, greases, fats, or ozone in your application, your new gaskets will not last a week.

With Qualiform, you can skip all the confusion with rubber material selection. We carry a comprehensive selection of rubber compounds including Butyl, EPDM, TPEs, and much more! Our team of rubber molding experts will provide recommendations for which compounds will work best in your application, so you never have to worry about picking the wrong one!

Here at Qualiform Rubber Molding, we have optimized our extrusion processes for the highest levels of precision and uniformity. To start your project, we will create a custom extrusion die based on the desired configuration. We will then feed unvulcanized rubber into a hopper where a rotating screw applies pressure and heat to push the rubber into the custom die. The die causes the heated rubber to reform and match the cavity’s shape.

Once the rubber has adapted to the proper shape and cooled, we remove it from the die cavity and begin post-processing. Post-processing begins with curing the rubber with sulfur or another curing agent. We will then perform drilling, splicing, end joining, cutting to size, and power dusting depending on the requirements of the project. Our staff will provide updates and answer any questions you have throughout the process to ensure you are satisfied with your rubber extrusions.
