Grasping the key elastomeric properties and characteristics is crucial for selecting the right material for an application, ensuring it performs reliably under specific conditions. Start exploring these fundamental concepts today to make informed decisions and prevent material failure in your designs.

Mitigate risks and invest in our physical and analytical testing early in the new product development lifecycle. Our team of experts are committed to ensuring your product meets quality standards and expectations.

To ensure a material will perform as expected in a given application, you must compare its hardness and durometer type. Choose the correct hardness to guarantee the rubber is neither too soft to deform under pressure nor too hard to seal effectively.

Learn about the different types of Elastomers, their history, and estimated shelf life to ensure your product's longevity and safety.

To ensure you select the elastomeric material that provides the best performance and durability for your specific application, carefully compare costs so you can avoid premature product failures and unnecessary maintenance expenses.

Selecting the correct radius of an elastomeric material is critical for ensuring optimal performance and longevity in applications that require sealing or vibration dampening. To guarantee the success and reliability of your design, you must carefully choose a material with the appropriate radius to prevent failure from stress relaxation, compression set, or tearing.

Understanding the chemical resistance of elastomeric materials is crucial for ensuring the safety and longevity of products in various applications. Take the initiative to study the chemical compatibility of these materials to prevent premature failure, reduce costs, and enhance overall system reliability.
