Custom rubber parts can be produced through different manufacturing methods depending on the product shape, material performance, and application environment. At Yutung Industrial, our main rubber parts capabilities focus on EPDM extrusion and rubber compression molding.
EPDM extrusion is suitable for continuous profiles such as sealing strips, edge trims, and weather-resistant rubber sections. Rubber compression molding is more suitable for shaped parts such as gaskets, pads, blocks, sleeves, and other molded rubber components that require specific dimensions and structure.
Whether you are developing a new part or looking for a replacement supplier for an existing item, we can support your project based on drawings, samples, or key technical requirements.
Our Main Rubber Parts Manufacturing Processes
1. EPDM Rubber Extrusion
EPDM extrusion is commonly used for continuous rubber profiles with consistent cross-sections. It is a practical solution for sealing, insulation, cushioning, and weather-resistant applications. Typical products include rubber strips, sealing profiles, edge trims, U channels, and other custom extruded sections.
2. Rubber Compression Molding
Rubber compression molding is suitable for formed rubber components that cannot be produced as continuous extrusions. This process is often used for rubber gaskets, pads, sleeves, blocks, and other custom molded parts where shape, thickness, and mechanical performance are important.
How to Choose the Right Process
In general, EPDM extrusion is the better option when your part has a continuous and uniform profile. Compression molding is usually the better choice when the part has a defined three-dimensional shape or requires molded features that cannot be achieved by extrusion alone.
If you are not sure which process is more suitable, you can simply send us your drawing or sample. We will review the product structure and recommend a practical manufacturing route for your project.

Common Material Options
EPDM is one of the most common materials for outdoor sealing and weather-resistant applications due to its good resistance to aging, ozone, and environmental exposure. For compression molded rubber parts, material selection can be adjusted according to the working condition, hardness, flexibility, and application needs.
Applications
These rubber components are widely used in industrial machinery, doors and windows, enclosures, transportation equipment, structural sealing systems, and other applications requiring reliable sealing, cushioning, or protection.
