Rubber and silicone products are used for a variety of crucial applications.

Extreme heat, constant moisture, and air barrier requirements are common challenges in architectural, manufacturing, and industrial applications. While many materials can’t hold up under these conditions, silicone sheeting offers the perfect solution for these situations thanks to its superior temperature resistance and sealing properties. At Elbex, we specialize in high temperature silicone rubber sheeting, delivering dependable and customizable results for all of your silicone sheeting needs. Here’s a closer look at what we can do for you. The Unmatched Power of High Temperature Silicone High temperature silicone rubber sheeting is essential in applications where other materials would fail or degrade quickly due to extreme heat. This is because silicone is able to maintain its physical properties and sealing effectiveness across a much wider temperature range than other materials. This makes it especially well suited for creating water and air barriers. For example, you’ll typically find silicone in glazing systems, seals, and environmental barriers in architecture and construction thanks to its protective sealing power and energy efficiency. In manufacturing, it is used in pipe ramps, expansion joints, and protective sheeting when extreme heat is a factor. And when a non-reactive material for gaskets or seals is needed for water control applications, silicone is the ideal solution. Elbex's Commitment to Custom Silicone Sheeting Solutions At Elbex, we take pride in making customization our standard. We welcome design challenges that require custom-manufactured products, including silicone sheeting. In addition to our custom capabilities, we often have standard translucent silicone sheeting available in various widths for quick shipment — just call to check our current availability!

Public transit vehicles see rigorous use day in and day out. Because of this, they have a continuous need for durable transportation rubber profiles that can hold up under extreme environments, constant movement, and heavy use. Quality mass transit rubber extrusions, such as bus door seals and train window gaskets, are essential for vehicle performance, as well as passenger safety and comfort. Here’s how Elbex provides high durability rubber extrusions for transportation industry leaders. Engineering Comfort and Integrity in Motion One of the most important functions of mass transit rubber extrusions is to improve passenger comfort. Rubber components help keep out weather and water and limit vibrations throughout the vehicle for a more comfortable ride. They can also reduce noise from outside sources, further improving the passenger experience. With Elbex, you can count on finished components to provide lasting support, as they are manufactured to withstand mass transit’s toughest conditions, including direct sunlight and extreme temperature changes. Specialized Sealing and Safety Solutions Sealing applications like bus door seals, bus window seals, and train window gaskets also play a vital safety role. In addition to protecting passengers from the elements, extruded rubber components also protect vital vehicle systems. For example, extruded rubber bumpers cushion and reduce movement from impacts, while D-sections help eliminate vibrations for smoother vehicle operation. Similarly, U-Channel profiles such as edge guards and protective sleeves and gaskets help secure and protect essential components throughout the vehicle. Custom Manufacturing: The Key to High Durability At Elbex, our ability to provide high-durability rubber extrusions for the transportation industry comes from our commitment to quality throughout the entire custom manufacturing process. Rather than carrying inventory, we offer custom manufactured transportation rubber profiles to meet your unique project requirements. Custom components (available in continuous lengths and precise shapes) created for a precise purpose deliver superior stability and protection for these high-use environments. This is true whether you need us to help with the creation of D-sections, U-channels, or hollow tube profiles. A Collaborative Approach with Transit Engineers At Elbex, we believe in actively collaborating with transportation engineers to ensure that transportation rubber profiles meet your exact specifications. We offer comprehensive design assistance, material selection support, custom on-site tooling, and value-added services like vulcanized splicing and high-speed auto cutting. Our aim is to ensure that your finished mass transit rubber extrusions meet all regulatory standards and applicable codes. With our precision products like bus door seals and train window gaskets, you can have confidence that you’ll get the results you need when you work with our team.
