Materials We Use for Custom Rubber Extrusion

At Custom Rubber Extrusion, we're experts in manufacturing top-notch rubber profiles, seals, and gaskets using high-quality materials that ensure long-lasting performance. The key to any successful extrusion project is choosing the correct rubber material, since every type has its own specific mechanical, thermal, and chemical characteristics.

We use a variety of high-quality rubber compounds, such as EPDM, Silicone, Neoprene, Nitrile (NBR), and Natural Rubber, to make sure we can deliver the right solution for your needs. Our wide range of materials perfectly suits the specific application and the needs of the industry. Let's take a closer look at each material to see its specific properties, benefits, and ideal uses.

Types of Materials

HDPE Molding

High-Density Polyethylene offers strong chemical resistance, impact strength, and durability, making it ideal for containers, industrial parts, and piping components.

Polypropylene (PP)

PP is lightweight, flexible, and resistant to fatigue. Commonly used in automotive parts, packaging, hinges, and living hinges.

Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS)

ABS combines strength and toughness, making it perfect for enclosures, toys, appliance housings, and automotive trim.

Polystyrene (PS)

PS is lightweight and cost-effective, commonly used in consumer goods, packaging inserts, and laboratory ware.

Polyoxymethylene (POM)

Also known as acetal, POM is excellent for precision parts, gears, bearings, and components requiring high stiffness.

Polyethylene (PE)

PE is tough and flexible, making it suitable for bottles, films, liners, and general-purpose molded products.

Nylon (PA)

Nylon offers excellent strength, abrasion resistance, and thermal stability—widely used for mechanical components and gears.

Polymethyl Methacrylate (PMMA)

Also known as acrylic, PMMA is used where clarity and optical transparency are required—light covers, lenses, and displays.

Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE)

LDPE is soft, flexible, and lightweight—commonly used in bags, tubing, and squeeze bottles.

Polycarbonate (PC)

An extremely tough thermoplastic used for impact-resistant parts, safety products, machine guards, and optical components.

Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE)

TPE combines the flexibility of rubber with easy processing. Used for grips, soft-touch products, and seals.

Thermoplastic Rubber (TPR)

Known for elasticity and durability, TPR is widely used in footwear, soft-touch components, gaskets, and flexible parts.

Comparison Overview for Choosing the Right Material

Material Temperature Resistance (°C) Oil Resistance Weather Resistance Applications
EPDM -50 to +130 Poor Excellent Outdoor seal, automotive weatherstrips
Silicone -60 to +230 Fair Excellent Food, medical, aerospace
Neoprene -40 to +120 Moderate Good HVAC, marine, industrial seals
Nitrile -30 to +120 Excellent Fair Oil, seals, automotive hoses
Natural Rubber -40 to +80 Poor Fair Shock absorption, vibration pads
