About Parker TSD: Parker TSD specializes in extruded rubber products. They got their start as JBL, specializing in extrude and cut washers in various rubber compounds and santoprene. They are tooled in ID & OD combinations up to 3", thus there isn't any tooling charges. They utilize high speed cutters to produce millions of precision cut washers on a daily basis.
In the 1990's, they began extruding various shapes and providing them as cut-to-length parts, footage and spliced rings - & four corner gaskets. One key advantage is being able to provide the profiles as hollow o-rings, omega(s) and other hollow profiles. Hollow profiles provide low closure force properties similiar to sponge rubber but without the compression set issues that are often seen with the use of sponge.
Parker TSD expanded their size capabilities with the purchase of Goshen Rubber Company in the early 2000's. Goshen can produce lathe cuts up to 19" OD. Also, they can produce lathe cuts that have various profiles (i.e u-cup profile, "D" rings, etc.). |
