The complexity of rubber

The enormous diversity of the use made of seals in every area of activity and the immense possibilities of a very extensive choice of formulations make the manufacture of seals a very complex business.

Skill in mixing and in using the tools is the guarantee of successful manufacture

The various processes in the manufacture of a seal:

• Formulation
• Creation of tools
• Moulding
• Casting
• Extrusion
• Production
• Cutting out
• Adherisation

Although they have more than a thousand formulations in stock, SEE and LCC are continually creating new formulae for increasingly varied requirements

Particularities of SEE and LCC products (according to the essential features requested):

• Fire resistance
• Resistance to extreme temperatures
• Seal resistance to gases – air – all fluids – noise
• Electrical conductivity
• Hardness of 20 shores (foam) to 75 shores D or 99 shores A
• Approval for use with foodstuffs
• Approval for use in the presence of fire, smoke or toxic substances (safety standards)
• Etc.
