Product Overview

A conductive membrane rubber keyboard brings multiple keys together in a flexible part. Its shared base needs to lie in the intended position without being stretched between mounting points. Otherwise, tension introduced while fitting one corner can change the resting position of keys elsewhere in the layout.

Place the keyboard using its locating features before fastening the enclosure. Let the rubber settle naturally, and check that openings or posts align without a sideways pull. Tighten the surrounding assembly in the intended sequence while watching for a lifted edge or a key that changes height. The conductive interface underneath must remain correctly registered throughout this process.

Custom size, color and molded logo details are available, with hardness choices listed from 30 to 90 Shore A. Review a candidate construction across its full width rather than checking only a center key. For maintenance, release the retained areas before lifting the membrane away from the board. Pulling from one loose corner while another remains trapped can stretch or tear the connected sheet.

Material options
Rubber. Custom formulation and color for the intended contact conditions.
Hardness selection
Rubber: 30–90 Shore A. Pulling from one loose corner while another remains trapped can stretch or tear the connected sheet.
Custom dimensions
Tighten the surrounding assembly in the intended sequence while watching for a lifted edge or a key that changes height.
Fit & assembly
Let the rubber settle naturally, and check that openings or posts align without a sideways pull.
Use & inspection
For maintenance, release the retained areas before lifting the membrane away from the board.

Photos illustrate structure or material only. Custom size, color and molded logo details are available, with hardness choices listed from 20 to 85 Shore A. 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.
