Rubber is one of the most versatile materials in industrial production. Yet each application requires rubber products with specific structures, properties, and dimensions. In many cases, mass-produced rubber items cannot meet the unique technical requirements of individual applications. That is why custom rubber-processing services play a crucial role in the supply chains of many industries.
Rubber-Processing Capabilities at Thai Duong Plastics
Thai Duong Plastics specializes in industrial rubber molding based on drawings, physical samples, or target specifications. Every production stage is tightly controlled to ensure each product performs its intended function and maintains long-term stability.
Thai Duong operates a dedicated technical-rubber plant equipped with 15 presses ranging from 150 t to 1 000 t. Depending on the product’s design and technical requirements, we flexibly apply the following molding technologies:
- Compression molding for solid, non-hollow parts
- Transfer molding for high-precision products
- Injection molding for large-volume production
By managing the entire production chain in-house, Thai Duong can maintain batch-to-batch consistency, shorten lead times, and handle orders of any size.
Technical-Rubber Products We Process
Thai Duong offers a wide range of custom products for sealing, damping, insulation, and more:
- Gaskets and sealing rings
- Rubber pads and vibration dampers
- Protective caps, grips, rubber stoppers
- Washers, feet, insulating components
- Over-molded parts combining rubber with metal or plastic
- Rubber sheets, anti-vibration mats, specialty rubber items
Products can be made from existing samples, technical drawings, or basic specifications – with flexible options for size, hardness, color, and structure.
Flexible Custom Rubber Compounds
Instead of relying solely on off-the-shelf materials, Thai Duong can compound rubber blends to exact technical requirements – tailoring hardness, elongation, oil resistance, heat resistance, insulation, and chemical resistance.
Popular materials we process include:
- Silicone: High-temperature resistant, food- and medical-grade safe
- EPDM: Weather- and ozone-resistant for outdoor use
- NBR: Oil-resistant for engines and hydraulic systems
- SBR, CR, HNBR, NR, Butyl: Covering diverse technical needs
Each compound is physically tested before production to guarantee uniformity and performance.
Tolerances and Quality Control
Technical-rubber products must meet strict dimensional accuracy. Thai Duong applies ISO 3302-1 tolerances, suitable for medium- to high-precision parts.
After molding, every batch is tested for hardness (Shore A), tensile strength, elongation, compression set, and more. All data are logged by mold and lot number for full traceability.
Transparent Workflow
To ensure products meet real-world operating conditions, Thai Duong follows a clear process with each client: collecting information, proposing machining methods, and approving drawings before production. Key stages are inspected and reported regularly. Every batch ships with a technical report so customers can track quality and delivery.
Comprehensive Technical Support
Thai Duong provides end-to-end technical support – idea development, drawing adjustments, design optimization, material integration, assembly, and custom packaging – to match each application’s standards.
