Product Overview
Silicone toy tires can be developed for a wheel assembly that has a defined temperature requirement. Select the formulation for the conditions the rubber actually encounters, including cleaning and storage, rather than assigning one heat limit to every silicone tire. Dimensions and color can then follow the toy design.
Consider the complete wheel during that selection. The tire surrounds another component, and the hub or axle arrangement may have different material requirements. A heat-tolerant rubber choice does not establish that the assembled toy can undergo a particular heating process.
Use the finished product's care method and keep wheels clear of unintended heat sources during storage. If the rubber changes shape after exposure, check the hub as well as the tire before refitting. A ring can retain a familiar outside appearance while its internal contact has changed.
Evaluate the selected configuration on the completed toy for its intended users and operating conditions. Check rotation after care and storage, including the relationship between the rubber and its support. Preserve the compound and fitted section when replacing a damaged tire; a different silicone version needs its own assessment even when the color and loose diameter match.
- Material options
- Silicone. Custom formulation and color for the intended contact conditions.
- Hardness selection
- Silicone: 20–80 Shore A. Evaluate silicone tread deformation together with the wheel interface under the intended toy conditions; confirm that the selected grade preserves the required rolling shape.
- Custom dimensions
- If the rubber changes shape after exposure, check the hub as well as the tire before refitting.
- Fit & assembly
- Check rotation after care and storage, including the relationship between the rubber and its support.
- Use & inspection
- Select the formulation for the conditions the rubber actually encounters, including cleaning and storage, rather than assigning one heat limit to every silicone tire.
Photos illustrate structure or material only. The tire surrounds another component, and the hub or axle arrangement may have different material requirements. 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.
