Silicone is a product manufactured from silicon, an element found in sand. It has both rubber- and plastic-like properties and can be shaped or formed, softened or hardened into basically anything. Extruded silicone products are extruded in a range of shapes and are used to provide vibration dampening, noise reduction, thermal shielding and insulation, and …
Silicone cable jacketing material is used for a multitude of industrial applications because of its flexibility, UV resistance, chemical resistance, and temperature resistance. It can withstand a wide range of temperatures, spanning from approximately -67°F to 400°F (-55°C to 205°C). These properties make silicone jacketing ideal for medical applications where devices must withstand repeated cleaning, …
Safe flights rely on good weather, skilled pilots, and a fully functional plane. The last thing you want when flying is for the plane to malfunction. That’s why having the appropriate products is important. The aerospace industry uses rubber extrusions and molded products in jet engines, vehicle engines, and other mission-critical applications. These rubber products …

For over a quarter of a century, we have specialized in quality custom extrusion and molded products in rubber, silicone, flexible plastic, and other elastomeric materials. We have worked hard to become leaders in our industry. For instance, in 2019 …
The rubber extrusion process begins with a rubber compound being heated and fed into an extruder, where revolving screws carry the rubber toward a specially-made die in the desired shape of the extruded component. Temperature and pressure increase as the material is forced through the die opening. As it passes through the opening, the rubber …
We manufacture custom rubber, silicone, and plastic extruded profiles and moldings for engineers and OEMs across a broad range of industries. One of those is the construction industry. Construction applications require durable and high-performance materials that withstand exposure to the sun, UV rays, and extreme temperatures. Our available materials for construction extrusions include thermoplastics, silicone, …
What is silicone? Silicone is a product manufactured from silicon, an element found in sand. It has both rubber- and plastic-like properties and can be shaped or formed, softened or hardened into basically anything. Silicone has many benefits including tolerance to low and high temperatures, thermal stability, excellent insulation properties and resistance to water. It …
