Custom designed diaphragms for actuators, controls, regulators, valves, pumps and accumulators. Products can be die-cut or formed from rubber coated fabric or insert molded with fabric reinforcement. They can also be molded with metal inserts and supplied with a PTFE coating. A well equipped laboratory with TGA, IR, DSC and DTMA equipment facilitates the analysis, control and development of materials for almost every application. Certifications can be provided where appropriate for compliance with international standards such as FDA, WRC, ECE R67 / 110, EN 549
