Product Overview

A double sided suction cup connects two suitable surfaces through opposing flexible contact faces. Its custom geometry determines the size of each interface and the separation between them. Both sides need appropriate seating; secure attachment on one face does not confirm that the other face has formed its intended seal.

Check the usable contact area on each surface. One side may be flat and continuous while the other includes curvature, a seam, or a texture that interrupts the rim. The two surfaces should reach their intended positions without forcing the cup body sideways between them.

Consider the order of assembly and release. It should be possible to seat each face and later separate the intended interface without pulling unpredictably on the other one. The space around the cup must allow that handling, particularly when the connected objects conceal the rims.

Keep both contact faces clean and choose the compound for the actual exposure conditions. Evaluate the complete arrangement with its intended orientation and movement. A double-ended shape does not establish a holding load or make two unsuitable surfaces compatible. After separation, inspect both lips for cuts, trapped debris, or persistent distortion before using the cup again.

Material options: Custom silicone compound; formulation and geometry developed together.
Hardness selection: Silicone options: 20–80 Shore A. A double sided suction cup connects two suitable surfaces through opposing flexible contact faces.
Custom geometry: One side may be flat and continuous while the other includes curvature, a seam, or a texture that interrupts the rim.
Fit evaluation: Evaluate the complete arrangement with its intended orientation and movement.
Color & OEM: Custom colors; OEM markings outside the suction contact face.

Ordering this custom component

Can the shape be adjusted to my mating parts?

Yes. Show the receiving opening, contact surfaces and clearance limits. We can review the dimensions and retaining features around the intended fit.

Which details should be agreed before tooling?

Agree the critical dimensions, material, hardness, visible surfaces and sample requirements. Explain how the part is installed and which interfaces control its function.

Can a sample help define the replacement?

A sample can help explain the structure. Compare it with the assembly because wear, swelling or compression may have changed its original dimensions.

How is the quotation for this part determined?

The material, part geometry, tooling, quantity and finishing affect the quotation. Include the intended batch size and delivery destination when describing your requirements.
