PTM can supply the shape, style and quantity that you require if your process requires a rubber moulding. Available from our full range of elastomeric polymers.
Our compounds are available in varying hardness’s. From as low as 20° shore A, up to 95° shore A. Plus, if you require a specific colour for your seal, please ask. Some compounds are available in a greater colour and hardness range than others.
Many of our compounds can also be offered to meet standards such as FDA, EC1935, WRAS, DTD or specific ASTM line callouts.
Experienced Rubber Moulding Team.
To match your needs exactly; together with our compounders, we can even develop application specific compounds. Our team are experienced in moulding our full range of materials.
This includes our specialist grades such as.
- perfluoroelastomers
- EMI/RF shielding compounds
- carboxylated nitrile
- high performance silicones and fluorosilicones.
Our team will work with you to offer a competitive, high quality, rapid production process.
Whether your requirement is for a one off seal, or thousands of parts.
We know that the solution to your requirement is achievable. Over the last 45+ years, our dedicated rubber moulding team has amassed a wealth of experience in rubber moulding, so, from initial design through development to implementation, we can help.

Rubber Moulding Presses.
Our moulding presses range from 16″ (400MM) to 39″ (1000MM) and we have around 4,000 mould tools to choose from.
These include sheet and pad moulds for those low volume specific requirements, which maybe useful when you have a requirement for a specific hardness or colour, not available in calendared sheeting.
We also have a huge range of standard tools to mould O-Rings and backup rings.
Our selection of ring moulds are particularly suited when using higher priced polymers for gaskets as you don’t incur any waste from the “centre”. Therefore saving on the cost.
We also have a large range of “manway” and lid seal tools to produce OEM compatible parts quickly and efficiently from our complete range of compounds.
Our two ovens are used for post-curing elastomers when required. This ensures materials such as silicones and fluoro-elastomers achieve a perfect cure.
