Molded dust seal rings

Dust seal rings, custom molded from nitrile nitrile: see rubber.  elastomer elastomer (ĭlăs`təmər), substance having to some extent the elastic properties of natural rubber. The term is sometimes used technically to distinguish synthetic rubbers and rubberlike plastics from natural rubber.  compounds, are offered by the company for use in helicopter precision rotor bearing assemblies. Due to the close tolerance requirements of these dust seals, their manufacture requires the use of an elastomer that bonds well to G-10 fiberglass and precision in both design and molding to ensure that bearing assembly components are adequately protected. The company offers capabilities that are said to be crucial to the production of dust seal rings, including an in-house molding press which can manufacture components as large as 44", while maintaining tolerances on part diameter as tight as [+ or -] .010 and thickness as close as [+ or -] .003, accurate secondary trim operations and superior machining of G-10 inserts from sheet stock. The bonding of rubber to other substrates is said to be another specialty of the company. (Pelmor Laboratories, 401 Lafayette St., Newtown, PA 18940-0309)

Specialty co-extrusions

This specialty manufacturer of silicone rubber and specialist in the extruding of thermoplastics offers co-extrusions made of silicone robber and a variety of thermoplastics. The co-extrusions can also be made with soft or hard thermoplastics. The silicone rubber acts as an excellent sealing material Noun 1. sealing material - any substance used to seal joints or fill cracks in a porous surface
material, stuff - the tangible substance that goes into the makeup of a physical object; "coal is a hard black material"; "wheat is the stuff they use to make bread"
 that is not affected by low and high temperatures and atmospheric conditions, according to the company. The silicone is extruded with a thermoplastic A polymer material that turns to liquid when heated and becomes solid when cooled. There are more than 40 types of thermoplastics, including acrylic, polypropylene, polycarbonate and polyethylene.  that acts as a ridged base to secure the product.
