We can manufacture non-standard O-rings and seals in a range of materials, colours and shore hardness's. Please phone to state your requirements. Using our in-house Cryogenic trimming technology and network of laser welding and tool polishers, we can supply seamless O ring sections for when the seal is critical. Examples: Formula 1 O-section head gaskets, discontinued standard O rings, specific material O rings.

Standard Straps come in a selection of sizes and are or moulded from either Natural Rubber 50 IRHD or Neoprene Rubber 50 IRHD. The standard colour is black rubber, The standard sizes are: 30cm (12”), 25cm (10”), 23cm (9”), 20cm (8”), 15cm (6”) all are 2.5cm wide (1”). These come with a metal hook at each end of the moulding measuring 3cm x 1cm. Custom moulded rubber straps are to your design and material requirements. Feel free to send a drawing or your existing rubber strap. Custom straps can be made from the full range of rubbers listed on the materials page at www.butserrubber.com/materials.

Extrusion

H section, P section, square section, silicone, sponge, coloured, ribbed or reinforced. We can supply extrusion to your needs. We have a number of standard product lines, but are very happy to talk about custom sections, material specs and die-cuttings. Butser is very keen to supply you with the correct product. We can tailor your section to your needs whether you need: colour-matching, heat, flame or steam resistance, food quality grade, tight tolerances or an extrusion that will work in either high and low temperature, please contact us.

Sponge

Moulded, sheet, extrusion, stamped, punched or fabricated, we have a lot of experience with this material. Recent investment in new machinery has made sponge seal and gasket cutting one of our most exciting product lines. With the added advantage of PSA (self-adhesive) backed sponge products, customers have been able to use this type of material in a new manner of ways. For example, self-adhesive sponge seals fixed to aircraft, where the seals do not drop out as the lower housings are removed, making them, "A damn sight easier to fit, replace and work with as you don't need three hands". Examples: Sponge window seals, Silicone sponge compression seals, Slow return memory sponge, Protective sponge housings.

Rubber and Sponge Fabrications

Butser Rubber supply many custom fabrications for a range of different applications using a number of materials. Fabrications offer great product flexibility with low jig and tooling costs in comparison with injection tooling. Fabrications can provide fast turn around and short lead times on low too medium batch runs and is often used as an alternative to rapid tooling and prototyping. Fabricating extrusion to make compression set seals is one of Butser Rubber's largest and longest running product capabilities. Please enquire if you need your extrusions fabricated into the final component.

Butser Rubber's product range includes:

We are very happy to quote for all your rubber needs & can manufacture from both drawing & pattern part. We are an ISO9002 producer & can manufacture using BS & Defence DTD standard Materials. Recent investment in a computerised MRP system gives rapid responses & full lot traceability.
