Extruded Rubber Glazing Systems
Extruded rubber glazing systems from ELBEX are molds used to set materials, create environmental barriers, reduce vibration or fill voids between two surfaces. These gaskets act as seals designed to keep air, water, and sound from leaking in or out of the applied static areas. In the case of windows, the rubber glazing systems wrap the glass, molding to the surface to create an extra tight seal between two areas. Extruded rubber glazing systems from ELBEX offer maximum performance and reliability.
Glazing System Applications
At ELBEX, we can create a custom glazing system to meet your unique application needs. We have extensive experience serving the following industries and more!
- Architectural - The most common application for rubber glazing systems in the architecture industry are for creating weather stripping insulation. With this use case there are many different types of gaskets that can be produced, depending on whether windows or doors are on the interior or exterior of the building. For either application, it is important to note what kind of ratings are needed for fire, sound, water, air, etc. These glazing systems can be applied across commercial or residential buildings, providing environmental barriers and a proper fit for doors and windows.
- Indoor Agriculture - It’s imperative that growers keep plants and crops free of contaminants. Rubber glazing systems installed within indoor grow facilities means having an air-tight barrier between the grow rooms and the rest of the facility. These systems should be applied to seal any doors and windows surrounding any rooms containing plants, keeping them free of pests and particulates.
- Automotive - ELBEX extruded rubber glazing systems are an ideal fit for production of spare tire no-rattle pads, hinge covers, acoustic covers, gaskets, and more. They are also great for securing windows to cars, as our systems are manufactured to withstand the elements of mother nature.
- Marine - Rubber glazing systems for this industry are a vital part of extending the life of boats, as these gaskets can protect against serious leaks and flooding.
