Packings and Seals / Fracing Materials
The U.S. Domestic Oil & Gas Fracing industry depend on the durability of Chemprene material in their sealing devices. For seal reliability during down hole drilling operations, industry supply chain partners fabricate products like piston rubber and molded v-packing for various sealing assemblies from our Coated Fabrics. Piston seals, also known as piston packings, are mounted on a piston head which moves through the bore of a hydraulic or pneumatic cylinder tube. Environmental/Chemical conditions determine the choice of coating, while operating characteristics dictate size, shape and configuration of the seal.
Chemprene coated fabrics play a critical role in providing our customers critical resources like chemical resistant formulations for diesel, sour crude, H2S, amine corrosion resistance, etc. Our formulations give our customers fabrication latitude in the design engineering of application specific sealing meant to address issues in the field with updated technical solutions.
Oil Service companies can rely on Chemprene’s core competency as a material supplier and can mitigate risk by engaging in continuous joint-development projects on next generation technology. Operating companies can rest easy knowing that the new sealing technology developed within their supply chains starts with consideration of elastomeric performance in order to extend seal life and get the most hours out of the seal.
Modular Inflatables
The ability to deploy a durable, inflatable makeshift shelter under extreme conditions, whether be it weather related, or for isolation & decontamination purposes, is a growing need.
Chemprene can fabricate light weight, yet durable configurations in wider dimensions, which may aid in maximizing production efficiency and final assembly of our customer’s shelter designs.
In an emergency situation when the going gets tough, the Armed forces, Law enforcement, Fire & Rescue, Haz Mat and make shift hospitals can all depend on the Chemprene brand to protect them in the most extreme conditions.
Hovercraft Skirts / Life Rafts
Chemprene’s durable and wear resistant materials are engineered for many demanding applications.
Our manufacturing technology enables the lives of everyday people in the form of safety products, like life rafts, leisure and outdoors products as well as defense products for military hovercraft applications.
Chemprene has a long history of manufacturing to MIL and other stringent specifications. When the application is critical, our customers call on Chemprene.
Oil Boom
Our nation, and the world depend on exploratory oil drilling and retrieval operations to fire the furnace of the world economy.
We know, as history has shown, that it is not an entirely risk free process. When the worst case scenarios occur, and they are bound to happen, Chemprene has been there with durable, UV resistant products, engineered to protect the planet’s shorelines and offer mitigation tools for the worst possible cases of environmental pollution.
Chemprene enables clean-up efforts by providing carcass materials to support the most environmentally friendly response technique. Utilizing containment barriers to isolate spills for clean-up is a growing demand due to the rise in oil exploration in the U.S. and abroad.
A well designed boom is the only thing between our treasured eco-systems that inhabit the coastlines and potential calamity. We work closely with converters to meet the required specifications of the Navy and other parties responsible for keeping our shorelines safe and free from contamination.
Floats, Evac Slides and Crashworthy Fuel Tanks
Crashworthy and Ballistic Resistant Fuel Tanks come in many shapes, sizes and configurations.
Self-sealing fuel bladder technology has come a long way in recent years. Chemprene supports our customers with Nitrile-based materials engineered to meet very stringent MIL specifications. Chemprene continues to be a top supplier for this rigorous application. When it comes to getting our troops home from a mission safely, Chemprene remains a trusted brand for our fabricating customers.
Flexographic Print Pad
Engraving Rubber is an important material used to transfer inks onto corrugated boxes in the printing industry. The graphics printed onto some of our Day to Day household items are enabled by this product.
Distributors of printing supplies as well as corrugated printing companies rely on the value added services that Chemprene provides to it’s customers. Material can be cut into print plate sizes (120” and 180”) then individually packaged and shipped in separate boxes for convenience. The thicknesses we provide are .155” and .250” gauges. Materials is buffed into gauge to facilitate in the plate mounting process.
