Rubber Stopper Plug Design Suggestions
When customizing rubber plug stoppers, pay attention to the fit (taper angle and diameter) and chemical compatibility. The stopper’s dimensions (top diameter, bottom diameter, and length) must match the opening perfectly to ensure a leak-proof seal under the operating pressure or vacuum. Choose materials that are chemically inert to the substances they will contact and ensure the material meets any necessary certifications. Consider if the stopper needs to be solid or include a pre-drilled hole for tubes or sensors.Rubber Stopper Manufacturing Methods
