Product Overview
An EPDM rubber seal gasket should be selected for the complete set of substances it will encounter. Normal service fluid is one part of that environment; a cleaner used during maintenance may create a different contact condition. The custom gasket can have the correct mechanical outline and still require a different formulation for its intended duty.
List routine exposure, occasional spills, and the permitted cleaning process when defining the material. Include whether the rubber remains in contact continuously or is rinsed and dried between uses. These conditions belong to the actual application and cannot be inferred from the black appearance or general EPDM name.
The molded section must also correspond to its receiving seat. Keep the selected compound associated with the finished part so a visually similar silicone or other rubber version is not substituted during service. If the gasket changes size or surface condition in use, examine the substances reaching it before assuming the joint needs greater compression. Replacing the part without correcting an unsuitable exposure can repeat the same change in the next gasket.
- Material options
- EPDM. Custom formulation and color for the intended contact conditions.
- Hardness selection
- Rubber: 30–90 Shore A. If the gasket changes size or surface condition in use, examine the substances reaching it before assuming the joint needs greater compression.
- Custom dimensions
- The molded section must also correspond to its receiving seat.
- Fit & assembly
- The custom gasket can have the correct mechanical outline and still require a different formulation for its intended duty.
- Use & inspection
- Normal service fluid is one part of that environment; a cleaner used during maintenance may create a different contact condition.
Photos illustrate structure or material only. If the gasket changes size or surface condition in use, examine the substances reaching it before assuming the joint needs greater compression. ETOL directly manufactures custom-shaped silicone and rubber parts to your requirements.

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.
