Material Development

We understand that even the best-designed part in the world can still fail if it’s not made of the right material. That’s why we pay close attention to application variables and help our customers choose the best material for each situation. If need be, we can formulate and test custom compounds in our very own material development laboratories. Located within our Engineering & Research Center in Oklahoma, our three separate but adjoining material labs focus on mixing and milling, curing and aging, and physical testing of finished compounds. Taken together, these three endeavors allow us to achieve just the right blend of properties before a single part is molded.

The end result of our efforts? Our expertise in material development ultimately results in useful, effective compounds, and, by extension, product reliability. Best of all, that reliability, by further extension, results in even greater peace of mind for our customers, who can rely on our products to perform in the field as expected.
