Rubber Cap –Helping to Plug Gaps Perfectly

A rubber cap as the name suggests, is a cap or a plug made up of rubber. A rubber cap is essentially used for plugging gaps in a variety of applications that involves high heat and highly reactive chemicals. These caps are popularly used in powder coating and medical sterilization applications. These


are also used in furniture, gadgets and any equipment that may require high level of protection against fluids and temperature. Rubber cap are more commonly used in applications that need very tight closures. These caps offer a high level of noise insulation too. Rubber caps are very long lasting since they can withstand a high range of temperature, highly reactive chemicals, wear and tear, and corrosion.

Rubber caps are available in more than 350 varieties of polymers, but out of all the varieties, the following three are the most important.

·         EPDM rubber caps: EPDM rubber caps are generally used in applications that involve harsh chemicals. They can withstand high levels temperature of about 150 degrees intermittently. These rubber caps offer a tight seal. This type of rubber is lesser expensive and hence this is one of the most popular variety of rubber caps used.

·         Natural rubber caps: Natural rubber caps are highly flexible and therefore are best used in applications that involve stretching or compression resulting in deformity. Natural rubber caps can quickly regain their shape and do not deform permanently.

·         HNBR rubber caps: HNBR rubber caps are used in applications that involve long term exposure to oils, heat and chemicals. These caps can withstand high levels of temperatures; about 160 degrees intermittently and are generally used as automotive seals.

Alfa Rubber is one of the leading companies offering superlative quality rubber caps in India. The company offers rubber caps across a huge variety of polymers and sizes.

RUBBER WASHER – GET TO KNOW ALL ABOUT IT

Image
Rubber in its various avatars, both natural and synthetic, is used for creating different components for industrial applications. Every rubber material comes with different characteristics. These characteristics determine the components that a particular rubber material can be used for. Rubbers and its various compounds are widely used for creating washers. Washers act as gaskets around bolts and are used in applications that involve high compression. Rubber washers are created from molded rubber. Although washers are made from metal too; however rubber washer ismore popular as compared to its metal counterpart. Rubber washer is more resistant to fluids and it does not rust like metals. Rubber washer is flexible and it is because of this reason that it is widely used in applications that require constant expansions and contractions. Rubber washer can stand the test of time even in very heavy duty applications.One of the main tasks of rubber washer is to prevent leakages by creating...

Rubber Fuel Seal – How to Design the Perfect One?

Image
There are a few factors that need to be kept in mind when designing fuel seals. Temperature ranges that the given rubber variants can work in: Fuel seals are made up of different types of rubber. The kind of rubber variants used for a particular fuel seal depends upon the type of fuel used in the application. Not all rubber variants can work in the same temperature ranges and fuels. Only one or two type of rubber is suitable as fuel seals material for each of the application. It is important therefore to take into consideration the kind of temperature ranges that the chosen rubber variant can work in when choosing the same for fuel seals. Maximum temperature required: The kind of exposure to the temperature that the application involves is one of the most important factors in designing the fuel seals . Other than the kind of temperature range the application calls for, the highest degree of temperature that may be required for the same is also one of the most important considerations...
