Custom Vulcanized O-Rings
Description: vulcanized o-rings are made from molded cord that has been cut and Vulcanized together,as opposed to molded o-rings.Vulcanized o-rings are an excellent choice for static sealing applications when molded o-rings cannot be used due to large or non-standard dimensions,when only a few pieces are needed,or when you need an o-ring right away and cannot wait the standard lead time for molded production.Vulcanized o-rings can be made from a range of elastomers and in virtually any size.o-ring cord to make a vulcanized o-ring,continuous length cord is cut to length and then joined together in a mold at a high temperature for a specified period of time.This process forms the molecular bond necessary to create a strong joint.
Advantages and Limitations of Custom Vulcanized O-Rings: Vulcanized o-rings are a good choice for static sealing applications,or ones where the o-ring does not come in contact with moving parts.They are not recommended in dynamic applications,where the o-ring is subjected to the stress of moving parts.Vulcanized o-rings also may not be a good choice for those who need very large quantities of o-rings.In this case,it could be more cost effective to create tooling and buy custom molded o-rings.
