Rubber Bumper with Metal Bolt

Custom Rubber Corp. used its expertise in bonding rubber to metal for these bumper bolts. A hexagonal molded rubber head forms around the rounded head of the metal bolt insert. (Continued below.)

(ref: 105613)

The bolt has a unique radius because of the customer's tool cutting method. Pressure keeps the metal bolt insert in place as rubber is injected into the mold. During the molding process, rubber encapsulates the head of the metal bolt insert. The design of the of the mold and finished molded rubber part, as well as the process, ensures that the metal insert will not rotate or slip when the rubber head is turned.

When bonding rubber to metal, mechanical encapsulation can be a very cost effective way to bond the rubber to the metal insert. Mechanical encapsulation eliminates the need for specialty adhesives and makes it easier to retrieve the metal insert for reuse in case of a fallout.
