Custom Rubber Mouldings
Rubber Moulding Service with Fast UK Lead Times
Walker Rubber are committed to manufacturing your bespoke rubber mouldings quickly, reliably, cost effectively and to your precise requirements.
At Walker Rubber, we are committed to manufacturing your bespoke rubber mouldings to your precise requirements. With decades of expertise and advanced in-house techniques, we manufacture custom rubber mouldings quickly, reliably and cost-effectively; making us a leading rubber mouldings supplier in the UK.
We deliver rubber mouldings to meet your needs in weeks, not months, offering some of the fastest lead times in the UK. Armed with a wealth of engineering experience, and state-of-the-art equipment, our workmanship and moulding quality are unparalleled.
Although moulded components are often associated with plastics, rubber moulding requires a completely different set of skills and processes: something we have mastered over eight decades in the business. We produce one-off prototypes and high-volume production runs with the same precision.
Most moulding requirements are unique to every customer. Considering this, we started a bespoke mouldings service to help our customers find a one-stop shop for their rubber mouldings that can offer compression moulding, transfer moulding and injection moulding.
Rubber Moulding Applications
Custom rubber mouldings are highly versatile and are used in countless applications and industries and are found in many everyday items. Some of the most popular moulded products are:
- Rubber bellows
- Rubber dust covers
- Rubber seals
- Rubber trims
- Rubber grommets
- Rubber spacers
- Rubber buffers
- Rubber plugs
- Rubber bumpers
- Moulded bellows
- Rubber-to-metal components (e.g. bushes)
Rubber Moulding Specifications
Every moulding project has its unique demands, which is why we manufacture custom rubber mouldings to our customers' exact specifications. Whether you're developing a one-off prototype or need a large volume order, we ensure your moulded parts are engineering for accuracy, consistency and long-term performance.
Size & Dimensions
We manufacture rubber mouldings in a huge range of sizes:
- Ultra-small components under 1mm
- Large custom mouldings over 3m
- Lightweight parts under 1g
- Large, heavy-duty mouldings up to 250kg+
If required, we can further increase the maximum size using stage moulding, giving you even more flexibility for complex designs.
Custom Rubber Mouldings Service
If you are unsure of the exact moulded component you need, our team are ready to guide you through every stage of the manufacturing process:
Refining your design
When you enquire, we will work with the information you give us to create and refine the design for your moulded component. You can send us a drawing, existing part or provide information on the dimensions, function and application in which it will be used, and we can create the design perfect for your use-case.
Prototype before production
If you are looking to do a high-volume order of a specific moulded part, we recommend first getting a prototype, which we can provide as part of our service. This helps ensure the specifications of your order and our manufactured products exactly meet your needs, and allows us time to adjust if needed, saving you money if any alterations are in fact needed.
Selecting the right material
A big part of making sure your moulded component lives up to its application is selecting the right material to suit the stresses of the application. We will ask the right questions - for example, around its exposure to air, water, oils, fuels, etc. - and use our experience and expertise to then recommend and produce your rubber mouldings in the appropriate material.
Production & delivery
Our in-house moulding capabilities and lean workflow mean we can manufacture your mouldings in weeks, not months. We work to your deadlines, keeping you updated throughout the process. Once complete, your parts are package securely and dispatched promptly, ensuring fast, reliable delivery straight to your business.
