An 85mm rubber suction cup needs a suitable surface across its complete working footprint. A larger area may encounter more curvature, texture or local irregularity than a smaller contact. The cup should be evaluated on representative surfaces rather than assuming that increased diameter automatically produces a stronger attachment.
Define the mounting geometry and direction of force, including any turning effect from an offset attached component. Check whether nearby edges or features limit where the cup can be placed.
Clean the contact area before fitting and inspect the rim around its entire perimeter. A small section held away by surface variation can affect the whole contact. Evaluate holding and release through the intended use cycle with the actual assembly. During maintenance, look for trapped debris, nicks or lasting distortion. If the receiving surface changes, reassess the cup profile and placement rather than retaining the same part solely because its 85 mm size still fits the available space.
Photos illustrate structure or material appearance only. A larger area may encounter more curvature, texture or local irregularity than a smaller 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.
