The extruded rubber profiles are now being regarded as the necessary materials used in almost every industry starting from locomotive to medical and even in the house appliance industry also. These extruded rubber profiles are actually noted in the industry because of their strength and durability. These features of the material make them fit for use in different industrial purpose and even for multiple sealing applications. The basic features of the material as flexibility,Important features of extruded rubber profiles Articles elasticity, durability; etc makes it an obvious choice of the industries. Basically the size of the profile varies from 2 and half inches in thickness and 15 inch in width. And the diameter varies within 7-8inches.


The products that are being created by the extrusion process go through a process that is called the microwave process and the process implies to apply large volume of rubber in the hot air tunnel in a way so that the rubber surface gets heated evenly. Apart from creating different types of products, it is to be noted that different types of rubbers can be used in the extrusion process that includes Neoprene, Nitrile, natural rubber, timprene, hypalon, etc. make sure that the physical and mechanical properties of the material are conductive to environment. A very special feature of this rubber profile is that it provides in tumescent solutions for constructive weight code requirements. Particularly in the medical industry rubber thread is used as in catheters. Before the introduction of rubber profiles, aluminum profiles were used but because of its complex designs they are being ignored and everyone started to use the extruded rubber profiles.


You can apply these extruded rubber profiles on the bus window slide tracks that will prevent the creaky noise of the glass movement. They actually serve innumerable industrial requirements and that is something very true. It is to be known that a rubber extruder consists of small heated drum and an extrusion dye and frankly speaking there are many types of extrusion process.
