Neoprene also known as choloprene is a common material used in rubber bellow and dust boot applications. Neoprene exhibits both moderate resistance to petroleum oils as well as weather elements such as ozone, UV and oxygen. This qualifies neoprene uniquely for certain sealing applications where many other materials would not be satisfactory. Neoprene is a general purpose elastomer which exhibits low compression set, good resilience, and is both flex and cracking resistant. Finally, neoprene has excellent resistances to both ammonia and Freon, making it prime choice of elastomers in the refrigeration and heating and air conditioning industries.
Our neoprene BT-1044 rubber bellow is pre-engineered which means there are no set up or tooling cost, normally associated with rubber bellow applications. This makes the BT-1044 bellow a great “off the shelf” solution to finding obsolete replacement parts. Our customers also have found our pre-engineered bellows a cost effective solution for prototyping or applications requiring fast delivery such as the service or repair industries.
Bellows and rubber dust boots are versatile seals using in wide range of applications to seal dust and other environmental elements in applications with a stroke or designed range of motions.
