RE wall EPDM Molded EPDM rubber is the perfect option for outdoor applications. It can resist harsh weather conditions which allows it to be used in RE walls for bridges. It is capable to stabilize the color and resist heat. It is an affordable choice because it comes with the advantages of neoprene. EPDM pad for RE wall is popularly used in the construction, automotive, and water industries. It is because of the ozone resistance and temperature resistance features it has. However, Deesawala Rubber Industries does not recommend the use of EPDM which involves petroleum derivatives. The mineral oils and solvents can cause adverse reactions when used with EPDM.
Uses of RE Wall Grooved Rubber Pad
RE Wall Pads which are also known as RE Wall Panel Rubber Pads or EPDM Elastomeric pads are used for many things such as:
It helps in maintaining a gap in the RE wall.
It is used to avoid vibration on the bridge as it has properties to absorb the vibration.
It can be used to avoid cracks in the structure as well.
RE Wall Rubber in Compression Molding Manufacturing Process
Deesawala Rubber Industries uses the best quality and appropriate rubber material based on the client’s needs. The uncured rubber is used to control the shape and weight of the product. It is then placed into the mold cavity for effective shaping. After the mold is closed, the material is compressed between two plates that force the compound to flow, which helps in filling the cavity.
Functioning of the EPDM
The EPDM rubber material remains are pressed as per precise temperature and pressure. This allows the curing system to get activated. The operator oversees the process of compression molding and determines the time needed to cure the material. After the optimal level is reached and the cycle is finished, the molded parts and components get ejected from the mold cavity.
When compared to other processing methods, this method comes with a lot of advantages. The tooling process in this method is less which makes it easier and cheaper to manufacture the parts and components. It generates less wasted rubber material compared to transfer molding. This process of curing is ideal for elastomers and various curing systems. However, the process can be time-consuming and might require more efforts which can impact the cost and extend the cycle times.
Advantages of EPDM Molding
There are several advantages of using EPDM molding, such as:
EPDM has exceptional resistance to UV, ozone, weathering, aging, and other chemicals which makes it an ideal choice for several applications.
It can be used for outdoor applications as well.
It offers stability in extremely high and low temperatures.
It has low electrical conductivity.
It is versatile, durable, and has an extended shelf life for continuous use for long durations.
It is cheaper than other materials like silicone.
