Aware of Custom Rubber Corp.'s extensive rubber engineering and rubber molding experience, an existing customer once again relied on Custom Rubber Corp. to produce this flexible rubber insulating boot. The customer knew they could depend on us for the design assistance and rubber molding experience they needed to produce the best possible product. (Continued below.)

(ref: 105626)

Custom Rubber Corp. assisted the customer with every aspect of this flexible rubber insulating boot, from the design to the finished rubber part. Since the rubber boot is bonded to aluminum and the rubber is used as an internal insulating agent, the customer needed a rubber compound with many characteristics. It had to have a no slip agent and in addition to being resistant to oil, gas, and electricity. After experimenting with various compounds, Custom Rubber Corp. was able to identify the best rubber compound to suit the customer's needs as well as determine the ideal adhesive process for bonding the rubber to the aluminum.

Custom Rubber Corp. also assisted in fine-tuning the design in order to maximize both the efficiency and effectiveness of the flexible rubber insulating boot. Most notably, Custom Rubber Corp. suggested having the rubber bonded the external face of the tapered metal end rather than having it on the interior of a graduated taper at the joint. Ultimately, this new rubber design allowed for easier adhesive application, more precise alignment, and better rubber flow.
