Custom Rubber Wiring Harness Sheath Manufacturing Process

Material Selection and Preparation

Selecting high-quality rubber materials such as silicone, NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber), EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer), or FKM (Fluoroelastomer), depending on the specific requirements of the application. The chosen material is carefully prepared and mixed with necessary additives to achieve the desired properties.

Molding Process

The prepared rubber compound is then molded into the desired shape using one of the following methods:

Injection molding: The rubber is injected into a mold cavity under high pressure.

Compression molding: The rubber is placed in a heated mold and compressed to form the sheath.

Extrusion: For continuous profiles, the rubber is forced through a die to create the sheath shape.

Curing

After molding, the rubber sheaths undergo a curing process, typically using heat, to set the final shape and enhance the material properties.

Finishing

Any excess material is trimmed, and the sheaths may undergo additional treatments such as coating or texturing to improve their performance or appearance.

Quality Control and Test

We check for visual defects inspection such as cracks, bubbles, or un improper fit and dimensions. We also take unbroken insulation and extreme temperature tests. Such as we subject samples to extreme temperatures (-40°C to 120°C) and ozone exposure to verify durability.

Conclusion

Our rubber wiring harness sheaths are designed to deliver exceptional performance and reliability across a range of demanding applications. Crafted from high-quality materials like EPDM, silicone, and natural rubber, these sheaths provide robust protection against abrasion, environmental factors, and mechanical stress. We invite you to explore our customizable solutions and take advantage of our bulk order options.
