NOTE: Information provided here is for the selection of material to be used in a molded product manufactured by Precision Associates, Inc. We do not sell raw material or polymers.
Rubber materials selection is a critical step in producing a successful seal and customers put their trust in Precision Associates. We have over 1000 formulations and if something special is required, technologists in our on-site laboratory will develop and formulate recipes from over twenty polymer groups including, FKM, FEPM, FFKM, EPDM, NBR, HNBR, and Silicone.
PAI has developed materials engineered for performance in specific environments and markets including:
- Medical applications requiring FDA and/or USP Class VI materials that can be produced in our ISO 7 (Class 10,000) Clean Room.
- Oil, Gas and Chemical operations with extreme temperatures, high pressures and harsh chemicals.
- Food and Beverage seals from NSF61, FDA, 3A, or EC1935/2004 listed compounds.
- UL, REACH, and RoHS compliant materials.
- Low temperature.
- Abrasion resistant.
