You have a choice of a wide range of materials including:

Neoprene watertight seals...This closed cell material is suitable for making a watertight seal on boat hatches, lockers, enclosures, cabinets, etc. To bond into place, use a good contact adhesive if there is a large amount of moisture or water present.

Cork seals…The durability and versatility of cork has made it one of the most popular materials for seals. A natural product, it offers many advantages. It can be compounded with a variety of raw materials to provide a comprehensive range of sealing products.

Synthetic rubber compounds such as neoprene, nitrile and silicone are popular, but by blending carefully selected cork granules with these polymers, finished products can be provided which combine all the advantages of rubber, ie high tensile strength, resistance to many fluids, ability to withstand extremes of temperature. The natural properties of cork are high compression, good recovery and low load sealing.

Silicone seals …long lasting product that is ideal for a variety of industries. Its properties are second to none, with a wide temperature range of -40 degrees C to +250 degrees C continuous. The product is UV stable and non-toxic.

Nitrile seals… can be varied in formula to provide optimum sealing with controlled swell under the most arduous conditions.

Rubber seals … where a joint is required to be highly compressible under light flange loading.

Polyurethane seals …extremely durable, tolerant of severe pressure loads and resistant to a range of abrasive fluids, featuring impressive long-life characteristics.
