Hollow rubber profiles may seem simple, but they play critical roles in many industries. When you need specialized rubber tubing, you can count on Elbex. We manufacture extruded rubber tubing, including custom rubber tubing profiles, in a wide range of sizes, wall thicknesses, and materials. Here’s how we ensure a perfect fit when designing rubber tubing for industrial applications. The Versatile Roles of Rubber Tubing Rubber tubing fills a wide range of roles, making it a surprisingly important component. For example, hollow tubes are frequently used as protective sleeves to shield wires, cables, or hoses from abrasion, impacts, and environmental damage in automotive or industrial settings. This can be especially important for absorbing vibrations and cushioning sensitive cooling components. Rubber tubing for industrial applications also frequently provides a compressible and flexible profile for flange sealing, lid gaskets, and other gaskets and seals. And of course, rubber tubing can prove invaluable for drainage, especially when specialized materials are needed to meet exposure requirements for chemicals or high-temperatures. Manufacturing Expertise Across Key Industries With Elbex, you get manufacturing expertise for rubber hoses across industries, delivering dependable performance you can trust. In the automotive industry, our rubber tubing helps vehicles meet stringent regulatory standards by ensuring safe and proper functioning of door and window seals, hinge and acoustic covers, and more. In water control, gaskets and tubing for drinking water systems provide protective seals and ensure reliable water filtration and treatment. The use of specialized materials, such as NSF-61 approved compounds, is a must. And in general industrial and manufacturing, rubber tubing that can withstand extreme conditions like direct sunlight and temperature swings is essential for protective sleeves, expansion joints, and fluid transfers.

The construction industry faces many unique challenges: maintaining structural integrity, dealing with extreme weather, and ensuring long-term sealing. Custom rubber seals for construction projects are essential for dealing with these challenges — and Elbex can deliver the results you need. Our offerings include high-performance construction rubber extrusions, durable construction joint gaskets, custom extruded rubber profiles for construction applications, and specialized high temperature rubber sealing strips for construction joints. Here’s how we can help you find sealing success. Building Resilience: The Core Functions of Construction Extrusions Rubber extrusions play a variety of vital functions in construction. For example, rubber extrusions create superior environmental barriers by filling voids between two surfaces to keep air, water, and sound out of the structure. Construction joint gaskets and expansion joints help structures safely manage natural movement, such as temperature-related expansion and contraction, without damage. Many extrusions also help ensure proper fit and support for other building components and reduce uneven surfaces for greater structural stability. With these and other applications, Elbex engineers collaborate closely with industry professionals to ensure designs and materials meet all regulatory standards and building codes. Specialized Solutions for High-Performance Sealing At Elbex, we can also provide specialized, high-performance sealing solutions. For example, high temperature rubber sealing strips for construction joints can maintain their integrity even in extreme heat environments like roofs and exposed facades. We also produce a wide range of custom extruded rubber profiles for finished structures, such as glazing systems to set and seal architectural facades and fenestration, door and window seals (including D-sections and U-channels for weatherstripping and tight seals), and setting blocks that seat separate materials and reduce vibration. Our specialty applications also come in handy during construction work itself. Custom rubber seals for construction projects, like pipe seals and ramps, protect exposed pipes and cables from damage caused by impacts or load-bearing traffic. This prevents leaks and project delays to keep your work on track. The Elbex Advantage: Customized Expertise and Quality So, why choose Elbex? Our team specializes in custom extruded rubber profiles for construction applications, allowing us to meet nearly any design requirement for seals, gaskets, and profiles.
