Elbex - Custom Rubber Extrusions

ELBEX rubber and silicone extrusions are used in a wide range of industries, and for countless applications. This is made possible through the many types of elastomers we use, which allow us to optimize our extrusions for unique performance requirements.

Physical Properties of Elastomers

Elastomers are mixed with many different chemicals and compounds to achieve the desired physical properties in an extruded product. Basic polymers can also be used to create compounds with unique properties.

How We Are Different

On 31 Mar, 2019 By ELBEX

ELBEX was founded in 1974 by Edward L. Bittle, who spent decades in the rubber industry at B.F. Goodrich in Akron, Ohio the rubber capital of the world. The vision for ELBEX was different than a company like B.F. Goodrich though. ELBEX was created as a custom rubber seal manufacturer. As the company grew over time, it expanded to include rubber and silicone extrusions. Eventually, the company added custom rubber profile extrusions and custom rubber extrusion manufacturing.
