Rubber Compounds
Material Performance Starts with the Right Compound
Mario 10 develops and manufactures rubber compounds according to application, operating environment and the performance requirements of the final component.
A Compound Selected for the Application
The appropriate rubber compound depends on operating temperature, contact media, mechanical loading, required hardness, ageing resistance and expected service life.
Mario 10 can manufacture according to an existing customer specification or support the selection and adaptation of the material for a specific application.
Main Elastomer Materials
Material selection is based on the specific application and the required balance between mechanical properties, temperature, chemical resistance and expected service life.
EPDM
Suitable for weathering, ozone, water and a broad range of operating temperatures.
NBR
For applications requiring resistance to oils, fuels and technical fluids.
SBR
A versatile elastomer with good mechanical properties and abrasion resistance.
Silicone
For applications requiring a broad temperature range and specific material performance.
HNBR
For increased temperature, mechanical and oil-resistance requirements.
FKM
For high-temperature applications and demanding chemical environments.
From Technical Requirement to Production Compound
Application Review
