ELBEX Corporation is an ISO Certified leader in custom rubber extrusions and silicone extrusions. We have a range of capabilities aimed at manufacturing countless profile designs from numerous materials commonly used in rubber extrusions, such as silicone, EPDM, Neoprene, Butyl and more. Today, we serve a broad range of industries including automotive, mass transit, construction, water control, appliance gaskets, and more. But what sets us apart from other companies is our proven ability to create strong working relationships with our vendors and suppliers in order to minimize reduce cost for you, the customer.
The ELBEX team is able to reduce lead times and provide value-added services due to our capabilities like in-house die tooling, on-site silicone mixing, and silicone color matching. We can offer a wide selection of custom extrusion products through our abilities managing difficult geometry and material requirements, as well manufacture standard extrusions, due to our 100,000 pound capacity cold room of stored compounds. And we have a strong SPC and quality extrusion assurance systems in place to ensure performance and customer satisfaction.
We have more than 20 years in the rubber extrusion industry. So at ELBEX we understand the detail and planning that goes into every project. Contact our team and return an RFQ to begin the process of engineering a solution for your specific needs.
Today’s appliances need to perform at a higher standard than ever – and seals and gaskets play a vital role in making that possible. Specialized appliance gaskets and appliance seals deliver reliable barriers against heat, cold, and other hazards. As a leading provider of high-quality appliance rubber extrusions, Elbex’s custom extruded rubber gaskets for appliance manufacturing will provide the performance you need. The Essential Role of Rubber in Appliance Performance Gaskets and seals create a reliable barrier that keeps appliances functioning properly. These barriers fill a wide range of roles, such as preventing leaks in washing machines and dishwashers, helping refrigerators and ovens maintain desired temperatures, and securing components and eliminating vibrations in washers and dryers. Notably, these extrusions must be able to perform with exposure to water, extreme heat and cold, and other hazards. Elbex's Expertise in Custom Appliance Extrusions At Elbex, our team takes a collaborative approach in creating custom appliance extrusions for your business. We draw on our deep knowledge of different rubber compounds to select materials that meet industry and regulatory standards. For example, while silicone is best for high heat/food contact, EPDM is better for weather/water resistance. Materials expertise is paired with an advanced extrusion process, which forces uncured rubber through custom dies to create precise, fully cured profiles. Rather than carrying an inventory, we custom-manufacture every product to meet your exact requirements, ensuring superior stability and performance. Versatile Appliance Applications & Custom Profiles Appliance gaskets (which are static surfaces) and seals (which are moving parts) fill many roles in the appliance industry. Formed hoses and water resistance seals in washing machines and dishwashers, air barrier seals in refrigerators and ovens, and even blender lid seals provide necessary containment for appliances. Gaskets and seals can also eliminate vibrations and secure components. Our custom profile options include extruded gaskets and seals, bulb seals, custom extruded rubber d-sections, and custom extruded ribbed profiles. Each of these options can aid with filling voids, creating seals/barriers, reducing vibration, and more. Elbex's Unwavering Support and Resources Working with Elbex means you get a team that is committed to the success of its customers. Our team is ready to assist right from the start, offering guidance on materials selection and design assistance (including additional technical resources) to ensure the design and finished components meet your performance requirements. By doing all custom tooling in-house, we can also deliver our results faster and cheaper than if the work was outsourced, even while maintaining extremely high quality standards. With our extensive expertise in high-quality appliance rubber extrusions, including appliance gaskets and appliance seals, you can count on Elbex to help ensure that your appliances are reliable and compliant for your own customers.
