Match the attachment and installation method
Custom threaded suction cups attach to industrial hardware through a defined threaded interface. The thread locates the cup within the assembly, while the rubber face meets the workpiece. Thread dimensions, mounting depth, and cup geometry should be coordinated so the fitted part can establish its intended contact.
Tightening should not twist the rubber body or leave the cup tilted. Check the final position with the actual mounting hardware, then evaluate contact on the intended workpiece surface. Curvature, texture, contamination, and the load direction can change the usable contact. The complete vacuum system and operating sequence must be included when assessing holding performance.
Keep the lip and relevant vacuum passage clean, and inspect the rubber for damage before reuse. If several cups are installed on one fixture, their mounting positions should let each meet the workpiece as designed. A workpiece with an uneven surface may require particular attention to how the fixture approaches it, since one cup contacting early can prevent another from reaching its intended position. Evaluate the full fixture through approach, holding, movement where applicable, and release.
Use the planned release sequence rather than pulling the threaded mount until the cup separates. A replacement should match the mounting interface and rubber profile together so the fixture's original contact arrangement is maintained.
Photos illustrate structure or material appearance only. Thread dimensions, mounting depth, and cup geometry should be coordinated so the fitted part can establish its intended contact. ETOL directly manufactures custom-shaped silicone and rubber parts to your requirements.
Identify key dimensions, mating surfaces and quantity
Agree the compound and manufacturing approach
Review the fit and agreed requirements in the assembly
Manufacture and check against the approved requirements
Identify temperature, contact fluids and repeated movement.
Consider hardness together with wall thickness and support.
Check access, mating dimensions and the fitting sequence.
Yes. Show the receiving opening, contact surfaces and clearance limits. We can review the dimensions and retaining features around the intended fit.
Agree the critical dimensions, material, hardness, visible surfaces and sample requirements. Explain how the part is installed and which interfaces control its function.
A sample can help explain the structure. Compare it with the assembly because wear, swelling or compression may have changed its original dimensions.
The material, part geometry, tooling, quantity and finishing affect the quotation. Include the intended batch size and delivery destination when describing your requirements.
