Custom Rubber Extrusions vs Standard Profiles: Which Is Right for You?

Not every sealing challenge can be solved with an off-the-shelf profile. Understanding when to choose standard or custom rubber extrusions can save time, cost, and performance issues.

Standard Rubber Extrusions

Standard profiles are ideal when:

• Dimensions are non-critical

• The application is common

• Fast turnaround is required

They offer cost-effective solutions for many general sealing needs.

Custom Rubber Extrusions

Custom extrusions are designed for:

• Unique geometries

• Tight tolerances

• Specific performance requirements

• Bespoke equipment or enclosures

They allow full control over profile shape, material, hardness, and finishing.

Design Support from Concept to Production

Seal Extrusions supports customers through:

• Profile design consultation

• Die manufacture

• Prototyping and sampling

• Ongoing production runs

This collaborative approach ensures the final extrusion fits and performs as intended.
