Custom Engineered
Molded Shapes
Parker's O-Ring & Engineered Seals (OES) Division offers a variety of established and cutting-edge molding technologies,; manufacturing products that function as sealing and/or isolation devices. These products can consist of elastomeric or metal/plastic retained elastomeric combinations, and are offered in materials that meet a broad range of fluid and temperature compatibility requirements.
Homogeneous Rubber
Typically the lowest-cost sealing solution, homogeneous rubber shapes can be manufactured to fit virtually any application. Depending on customer requirements, these products may incorporate redundant sealing beads and/or retention features. Engineered shapes offer design flexibility and functional advantages over traditional flat or round cross-section sealing products.
Sub-Assemblies & Finishes
Parker OES provides partial or complete assemblies of sealing, isolation and other applications. In addition, various coatings can be added to improve performance in low-friction applications. From a simple two-piece assembly to a multi-part kit, we manufacture these products in a wide range of configurations.
Ports/Tube Sealing
Applications can have multiple ports or tubing. O-rings are a great option but may cause insertion force issues. O-rings also do not retain into a groove making it difficult to manufacture. A custom designed and molded shape can help alleviate the insertion force.
Rubber-to-Plastic Bonded Shapes
Whether mechanically or chemically bonded, rubber-to-plastic products offer many advantages including shape retention, integration of features, part number consolidation, simplified assembly and leak-path reduction. These products can often be used as a substitute for expensive elastomeric compounds, resulting in reduced total assembly cost.
Rubber-to-Metal Bonded Shapes
Rubber-to-metal bonded shapes are ideal for use in applications requiring improved shape retention, structural rigidity and load carrying capacity. These products offer many of the same advantages as rubber-to-plastic bonded shapes, and they can be molded into complex, three-dimensional configurations
