What is Compression Molding
Benefits of Compression Molding
Compression Molded Rubber Parts
Compression molding is a process where heat is used to create rubber components for medical, industrial and automotive applications. During this process, the rubber material is placed into a mold cavity, the mold is closed, and held at a certain temperature, where it takes the shape of the mold. After cooling and trimming of any excess material, the end result matches any design you create.
Compression molded rubber makes durable, intricate parts that can fit into a custom application or standard setup. Skilled production is key to this process, for the right mold design and using our ISO 9001:2015 process for excellent quality. By partnering with an experienced molder, this process can move quickly and speed up your overall manufacturing time.
How is Compression Molding Different from Other Manufacturing Methods?
There are a few advantages to choosing compression molding over other manufacturing methods:
• A high volume of silicone parts can be produced in a short time period. Our workforce is active 24 hours a day to make this process happen even faster.
• Larger pieces can be made quickly using a customized mold that incorporates all of the features you want.
• More intricate parts requiring multiple features and materials can be made quickly thanks to the custom mold we create.
• Wide choice of polymers to make components with using this process, so the end result is a durable component suitable for use in automotive engines, industrial machinery and medical tools.
• Less material waste than other types of manufacturing helps you save on waste and be a more eco-friendly consumer.
The biggest advantage for many manufacturers is the ability to mold different textiles together during the process. Silicone can be molded to fiberglass, metal or other textiles to create a product with multiple finishes. Not only does this create a strong bond between the materials and keep the finished product from breaking apart easily, it eliminates the need to manufacture components separately and have them assembled after the fact. Not only does assembly cost you more, it takes more time and hassle to complete. Instead of having to seek out a new company to complete assembly for you, having the raw components sent to them and waiting for the assembly process to be completed, custom silicone compression molding gives you access to the finished product quickly. This allows you to bring a new offering to your consumer much faster, or solve existing problems with your manufacturing process without experiencing a significant delay in production.

Compression Tooling
Materials and Applications for Compression-Molding
Compression-molding is used by manufacturers in the industrial, automotive, aerospace, medical and consumer sectors to produce a dizzying variety of items made out of a wide range of durable and versatile materials. While higher durometer compounds can be used to make compression molded items, the process is best suited to materials with a Shore hardness rating of between 50A and 90A. RII can even make dual durometer components comprised of substances with different Shore harness ratings.
Items made out of expensive compounds are often made using compression-molding because their unique properties are less likely to be degraded thanks to more consistent cavity pressures. The process is also used to create colored components. Materials that RII has used to make compression molded components include:

Items made out of expensive compounds are often made using compression-molding because their unique properties are less likely to be degraded thanks to more consistent cavity pressures. The process is also used to create colored components. Materials that RII has used to make compression molded components include:
- EPDM: EPDM is a synthetic elastomer that is often used to make seals and other items that will be exposed to the elements due to its ability to withstand exposure to UV rays and ozone. Virtually all synthetic roofing membranes are made out of EPDM, and the substance is also used in water recycling and rainwater capture systems because it does not contaminate the fluids it comes into contact with.
- Butyl: Butyl is chosen by manufacturers looking for chemically inert compounds that are durable and resistant to gasses. Automotive uses for butyl include the inner linings of car tires and components like O-rings that are used to dampen vibrations. It is also used to make pond liners and air hoses, and medical companies often choose the substance for medicine bottle stoppers.
- FKM: Fluroelastomer is used for products that will be required to endure chemicals, oil and very high temperatures. Car makers use the substance for turbocharger system components, gasketsand seals, and FKM is also used widely in the chemical manufacturing industry for items ranging from bellows and roller covers to expansion joints.
- Viton: Viton is a type of FKM developed by DuPont in the 1950s to meet the needs and unique demands of the growing aerospace sector, but it is now used by consumer and industrial manufacturers due to its high performance, durability and flame resistance. Viton is the favored compound for biodiesel lines due to the fuel’s high acid levels, and it is often used to make chemical resistant float valves and O-rings for use in petroleum refineries.
- Nitrile: Nitrile is an economical alternative to natural materials when resistance to heat and oil are important. It is suitable for making overmolded items, and nitrile NBR to metal bonded components are used widely in automobile and aircraft fuel and cooling systems.
- HNBR: HNBR is another durable and reliable synthetic compound that is widely used by industrial and consumer manufacturers. It can withstand temperatures as high as 165 degrees Celsius for prolonged periods without degrading, but it is vulnerable to certain organic solvents and is not flame resistant. It is commonly used to make timing belts, roller coverings and hoses.
- SBR: Derived from styrene and butadiene, SBR is a rugged material that is used to make about half of the world’s car tires. It was developed by German chemists in the 1920s to provide industry with a safe and inexpensive alternative to natural compounds. The substance resists abrasion and is an excellent choice for rubber to metal bonded items.
- Neoprene: Neoprene polychloroprene is a durable multipurpose elastomer that manufacturers have been using for more than 75 years. It is flame resistant, can withstand sunlight, and can tolerate exposure to chemicals, oil and high temperatures. Neoprene is often chosen for CVJ boots, vibration mounts, diaphragms, gaskets, washers and bearing pads.
- Silicone: Silicone compounds are used when components will be exposed to extreme conditions. It can withstand temperatures as high as 250 degrees Celsius and as low as minus 100 degrees Celsius. It is often molded into oven door gaskets, shaft sealing rings and automotive driveshaft components, and its excellent insulating properties make the substance a natural choice for electrical safety covers and wire and cable jacketing.

Compression Molding and Overmolding Services
The compression molding process was originally developed by the plastics industry and continues to be a common way to produce durable rubber and silicone-based molded products. It’s a basic process compared to injection molding or transfer molding and is suitable for medium or low volume production of medium or large items. During the process, pre-forms made out of silicone or synthetic compounds about the same size as the finished item are inserted into a mold cavity where they are cured or vulcanized by a combination of heat and pressure. Breakfast waffles are made in essentially the same way.
Compression molding can be used to produce items made out of a wide variety of materials including some of the more exotic and expensive synthetic rubber compounds. It is especially suitable for high durometer materials used to make extremely hard items. In addition to seals, O-rings, diaphragms and bellows, compression molding can be used to make intricate components due to the flexibility of the process. Compression molds contain from one to hundreds of cavities, and multiple mold plates can be used to produce complex parts.

Custom molded parts made using the compression method may not offer the precision of components produced by injection molding or transfer molding, but they are consistent enough for some very demanding applications. Compression-molded parts are also fast and quite economical to produce. The process is made up of the following steps.
- Pre-form insertion: The first step of the process is to place a piece of uncured compound known as a pre-form into the mold. The pre-form is cut to the approximate size of the finished item. Compression molds generally consist of a top and bottom plate with half of the cavity cut into each plate, but three or more plates may be used to produce complex items.
- Compression: Once the pre-form has been put into place, the mold is heated to a temperature appropriate for the compound and closed. The weight of preform used must exceed the weight of the finished item to ensure that every crevice of the mold is filled and any air is forced out. Using too little pre-form could result in air bubbles or voids in the finished item. A trim area made up of what are known as flash grooves is cut into the mold around the cavity to allow excess compound to flow out.
- Curing: The compound is then cured by a combination of pressure and heat. The curing time will be dictated by the specific formulation of the compound being used. The curing process, which is also referred to as vulcanization, generally takes between 5 and 15 minutes to complete. Once the optimal cure has been reached, the part is removed or ejected from the mold cavity in an operation known as demolding. It is then allowed to cool and harden.
- Deflashing: After it has cooled and hardened, the custom molded item undergoes its finishing procedure. This usually involves a certain amount of deflashing to remove excess material and may entail additional curing steps, an automated or manual inspection procedure and packaging.
