Choosing the wrong rubber hardness can mean:

• Premature wear
• Poor sealing
• Product failure
• Unnecessary replacement costs

We’ve created a simple carousel explaining the basics, and if you’d like the full technical guide, including scale comparisons and testing methods, you can read it here:

Before we can even think about extrusion, a lot goes on behind the scenes!

Cooled extrusions go into the autoclave, while the tools and excess rubber from the previous job need to be removed from our Barwell Extruder and packed away.

It can be a finicky process - as you'll see in this video, we create samples first in order to check them with our Keyence machine to make sure they're exactly within tolerance.

Thanks for watching!

Do you know your silicone from your nitrile? EPDM from natural rubber?

We've created a (rather nifty) table summarising the different types of rubber you can choose from and their properties over on our knowledge hub.
