Seals and Insulation for Military Projects at AUSA 2016

军事项目Is your company part of the defense community? Do you design, build, or buy components for military projects such as vehicles? Are you headed to AUSA 2016 next week? From October 3 to 5, 2016, leading defense contractors and subcontractors will join military officers and government officials for the annual meeting and exposition of the Association of the United States Army (AUSA). Held at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, D.C., AUSA 2016 is where you’ll learn about the latest in land power.

作为国防供应链的经验丰富的成员，Elasto Proxy将成为这一重要事件的华盛顿。Robert Naccarato，Elasto Proxy的销售经理和Tom Henry，美国分公司经理邀请您加入加拿大馆，或在您方便的地方安排在另一个贸易展位置的会议。如果您需要定制密封，垫圈或军用车辆的绝缘，您将希望利用这个特殊的机会。(more…)

Rubber Hatch Seal Case Study

军车Rubber hatch seals for military vehicles don’t just keep out wind, water, dirt, and mud. They need to withstand extreme temperatures and various weather conditions. Hatch seals must avoid compression set, too. If a vehicle’s hatch causes a rubber seal to over-compress, the part won’t provide proper sealing. Ultimately, this permanent deformation creates a gap and causes seal failure. That’s bad news for military vehicles and the highly-trained personnel who operate them.

In this case study from Elasto Proxy, you’ll learn how we solved a sealing challenge for a manufacturer of military vehicles. The rubber hatch seals that we supply resist over-compression and demonstrate the value that we add to defense contracts. For our 25 years, Elasto Proxy has been an important link in the military supply chain. Elasto Proxyalso holds a Controlled Good Certificate (CGC) and works closely with trade groups such as the Canadian Association of Defense and Security Industries (CADSI).(more…)

什么是适用于您的申请的橡胶管？

Rubber TubingRubber tubing is used in fluid transport and for electrical protection. Applications include shock absorption and low compression force sealing. Different elastomers have different properties, so design engineers and technical buyers need to choose rubber tubes carefully. Specifications such as durometer (hardness) and inner and outer diameter are especially important to consider.

通过选择合适的橡胶化合物industrial tubing, you can strengthen your company’s product designs. You can also control costs by selecting rubber tubes that are cut-to-size and ready-to-install. Metal tubes resist high temperatures and provide physical strength, but they cost more than rubber tubes. Plus, metal tubing may be subject to rust, corrosion, or scaling.(more…)

军队Acoustic Thermal Insulation

美国人说“Zee”字母z .加拿大人say “Zed” instead. In both North American countries, their militaries say “Zulu” so that radio or telephone messages can be understood clearly. If you’re a defense contractor that makes military vehicles, it’s important to know you’ll receive exactly what you asked for. Elasto Proxy, a trusted member of the defense supply chain, can custom-fabricate thermal acoustic insulation that meets all of your requirements.

In this product overview, you’ll learn about two types of thermal acoustic insulation – each with part numbers that begin with Z. So whether you say Zee, Zed, or Zulu, you can count on Elasto Proxy’s U.S. and Canadian offices to support the mission every time.(more…)

如何选择灯泡装饰密封件

Bulb Trim SealsBulb trim seals provide sealing and insulation for doors, hatches, and enclosures. These industrial rubber products have bulb and retainer sections that are made of different materials. The bulb section provides sealing and insulation under compressive force. The trim or retainer presses onto a flange or substrate. Each section of the seal also has a different durometer or hardness to support proper compression.

This technical article from Elasto Proxy is designed to help you choose the right bulb trim seals for your application. In addition to compound selection and part dimensions, product designers and technical buyers need to consider color, texture, internal supports, and exterior finishes. Your application may also require flame-resistant compounds or rubber that meets specific industry standards.(more…)

硅胶舱口密封件抵抗压缩和温度

Silicone Hatch Seals | ST-375-23-SM
Silicone Sponge ST-375-23-SM

Elasto Proxy定制制造硅胶舱口密封件，用于苛刻的应用。这些特种垫圈均采用良好的压缩设定和耐温性，支持卓越的密封。

Gasket designers want rubber hatch seals that are as tough as the vehicles, equipment, and infrastructure that need them. If a hatch seal can’t withstand compression, it may over-compress and admit wind, water, dirt, or mud. If a hatch seal can’t withstand a wide range of temperatures and outdoor environmental conditions, seal failure can result, too. If you need hatch seals for military vehicles, mobile equipment, marine applications, or HVAC systems, there’s plenty to think about. Fortunately, help is available.

For every hatch seal design, compound selection is critical. As readers of this blog learned last March, choosing the right rubber won’t stop enemy fire, but choosing the wrong rubber can result in over-compressed hatch seals on military vehicles. That’s why although neoprene rubber offers an excellent balance of material properties, this elastomer wasn’t the best choice for the military gaskets that Elasto Proxy inspected. After examining the results of over-compression, we recommended silicone sponge rubber seals instead. Is this same elastomer right for your application, too?(more…)

军队Vehicle Gasket Materials

你有没有想过为什么军方使用这么多缩略词？这是因为士兵，水手，燧发士兵和海军陆战队员需要快速，准确，有效地传达信息。这就是为什么供应商到defense industry也更有可能听到比“MAIRAP”的“MRAP”的术语更容易听到“MRAP”的术语。对于想要赢得新业务的国防承包商，掌握这些首字母缩略词可能就像学习新语言一样。

就像任何专门的学科一样，垫片设计也有自己的语言。例如，许多橡胶垫圈由合成弹性体制成，具有Buna-n和EPDM的名称。公布的规格如ASTM D2000使用字母和数字以高结构化的方式“呼出”硫化橡胶的性质。诸如硬度计（硬度）的措施单位有时是不熟悉的，因此买方和设计人员可能需要帮助，以将橡胶语言转化为项目规格。这只是Elasto Proxy如何提供帮助的一部分。(more…)
