宝永ゴム List of Products and Services

We will introduce common issues related to rubber and the solutions implemented by Bōei Rubber Co., Ltd. When the hardness of general-purpose rubber is between 40 and 60 (JIS K6253 Shore A), it cannot absorb micro-vibrations at all. One alternative that comes to mind is gel. However, due to high costs, we hear that it often ends up being just a consideration. 【Problems and Solutions】 ■ Issue: General-purpose rubber is too hard to absorb vibrations ⇒ After resolution: We can accommodate low-hardness rubber For more details, please refer to our catalog or feel free to contact us.

We will introduce common issues related to rubber and the solutions implemented by Bōei Rubber Co., Ltd. There are many hard materials besides rubber, such as metals and resins. However, we often hear voices like: "Just being hard is not enough for a product..." "I want to make it with the hardest rubber possible because cushioning is necessary for the product's application..." 【Problems and Solutions】 ■ Issue: If it's just about hardness, metal would be fine... ⇒ After the solution: We can accommodate high-hardness rubber. For more details, please refer to our catalog or feel free to contact us.

We will introduce common issues related to rubber and the solutions implemented by Bōei Rubber Co., Ltd. O-rings are basically standard products. If they are not available as standard products, a mold must be created. While it is not impossible to produce them through machining, it requires a very high cost, especially for larger O-rings. 【Problems and Solutions】 ■ Issue: While it is possible to produce them through machining, cost is a concern. ⇒ After the solution: Large O-rings can be obtained without creating a mold. For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.

We will introduce common issues related to rubber and the solutions implemented by Bōei Rubber Co., Ltd. Rubber, such as cushioning rubber, packing, and seals, is used in various places both outdoors and indoors. However, certain types of rubber can develop cracks due to various influences. When rubber cracks, it may become unusable depending on its application. 【Problems and Solutions】 ■ Issue: Cracks look unsightly and raise functional concerns ⇒ After resolution: Cracks have completely ceased to occur For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.

We will introduce common issues related to rubber and the solutions implemented by Bōei Rubber Co., Ltd. "I want just a slightly softer part on a hard object." "I want to add a little rubber sealing capability." We receive many inquiries about wanting to integrate rubber with different materials. However, challenges can arise, such as complex shapes, high initial investment costs, or difficult-to-bond materials. 【Problems and Solutions】 ■ Issue: Want to bond rubber with different materials ⇒ After solution: Achieved products that are difficult to bond *For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.

We will introduce common issues related to rubber and the solutions implemented by Bōei Rubber Co., Ltd. Rubber material selection is based on the usage environment and application. "We have been using this material for a long time, but is the selection correct?" "Wouldn't it be better to change the material for this part?" We have received inquiries about wanting to reconsider the material. 【Problems and Solutions】 ■ Issue: Uncertainty about whether the material selection was correct ⇒ After resolution: Provided advice based on material differences and selected the optimal material *For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.

We will introduce common issues related to rubber and the solutions implemented by Bōei Rubber Co., Ltd. Prototype costs, mold costs, material costs, etc. Various expenses are incurred in product realization. However, if considered during the design phase, it may be possible to reduce costs. "We can't repurpose existing products?" "What shapes and materials can the molds produce?" We receive many inquiries before the design phase. [Issues and Solutions] ■ Challenge: We want to know how to reduce costs. ⇒ After resolution: By consulting before the design phase, we successfully achieved cost-effective production. *For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.

We will introduce common issues related to rubber and the solutions implemented by Bōei Rubber Co., Ltd. "I want to consider silicone rubber because I need heat resistance." "I want to use rubber because I need cushioning." However, for products with complex shapes, the cost of molds can become too high, or the moldability may be poor, leading to setbacks during the consideration process. [Problems and Solutions] ■Challenge: Soft materials are desirable, but can complex shapes be achieved with rubber? ⇒After resolution: By innovating materials and processing methods, complex shapes can be realized. *For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.
