Elastomers 

industrial technical rubber

 

Elastomers are materials characterized by high elasticity and the ability to deform and then return to their original shape. They are used for gaskets, extruded profiles, and technical components.

Commonly referred to as “rubber”, they can be compact or expanded depending on the application.

 

 

Main materials and uses:

  • NBR (nitrile rubber) – excellent resistance to oils and fuels
  • EPDM – ideal for outdoors, weather and ozone
  • Silicone (VMQ) – high temperatures and food applications
  • FKM (Viton) – high chemical and thermal resistance
  • Neoprene (CR) – good mechanical resistance and external agents
  • Polyurethane / Adiprene – high resistance to wear and abrasion

Each material is selected based on specific application needs.

 

 
 

Plastic polymers

industrial plastic materials

Engineering polymers are rigid or semi-rigid materials used for mechanical and structural applications. 

Normally supplied in the form of semi-finished products (bars, plates or tubes)

Main materials and uses:

  • PA6 – good mechanical and wear resistance 
  • POM-C – high dimensional stability and low friction
  • PVC – good chemical resistance and resistance to corrosive agents
  • HDPE – high chemical and impact resistance
  • PTFE – very low coefficient of friction and high chemical resistance

Engineering polymers are often used as an alternative to metals due to their good balance between weight, strength, and workability.

Each material is selected based on specific application needs.
