Liquid Silicone Rubber Molding Capabilities
Our basic guidelines for silicone rubber molding, including important design considerations to help improve part moldability, enhance appearance, and reduce overall production time.
- Dimensions: 304.88mmx203.2mmx101.6mm
- Volume: 217,948 cubic millimeters
- Depth: No more than 50.88mm from any parting line; deeper parts are limited to smaller profiles
- Estimated mold area: 30968 square millimeters
- Tolerances: Xtmade can maintain machining tolerances of +/- 0.003 inches (0.08mm), with linear tolerances of +/- 0.025 inches/inch (0.025mm/mm)
Xtmade's full range of services
Xtmade specializes in custom injection molded Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR) parts, LSR overmolded parts, and LSR 2-Shot (LSR/thermoplastic) and Multi-Shot assemblies. Our team of experts has many years of knowledge and experience in injection molding LSR. We provide greater value to our partners by offering a full range of services from early design and prototype support to customized manufacturing processes and quality systems, providing customized solutions to meet the specific needs of each project, and delivering high-precision, high-volume, and high-quality Liquid Silicone Rubber and LSR Multi-Shot molded assemblies.
We'll Help You Avoid and Mitigate Signifcant Risks in LSR Projects
We work with you early in the project to help you consider quality and certification, avoiding rework that can add cost and delay your project. You can count on us to:
- Consult with you on prototypes to consider long-term production engineering needs.
- Help you consider all material options before moving on to the next phase of your project.
- Review key functional features with you, such as parting lines and gate locations.
- Help you develop specifications, ensuring they are not overly restrictive.
The more we collaborate and share information, the better our experts can help you anticipate your needs and avoid and mitigate project risks.
Designing and Creating LSR Prototypes with Manufacturingin Mind
We work with you early in the project to focus on quality and better understand the design input and output requirements of your custom part. Giving us a better understanding of the design intent of your product will result in a smoother product launch and significantly reduce future risk. Examples of questions we will help you answer include:
- Do you need an early prototype or a manufacturing-quality replica prototype?
- How many cavities are required in the tool to support the volume required for development?
- Where are your critical sealing surfaces and functional areas?
- Where can we place gates and parting lines?
- What are the general operating conditions for temperature, fluid contact, cycle rates?
Unlimited design capabilities
We rely on in-house tooling and advanced process engineering to improve quality and ensure tight tolerances are consistently achieved while providing our customers with the lowest cost of ownership.
We are your go-to manufacturer for custom molded rubber and silicone products
Xtmade can take your project from prototype to finished product production. You don’t have to involve another company in the production process. Some of the services we offer include:
- The fastest complete silicone service from prototype to production.
- Your custom tooling is made in-house from 4130 steel, creating precision steel tooling at the right lifecycle cost.
- Our custom molding services include injection molding, transfer, and compression molding capabilities.
- The production of overmolded parts is not just a major part of our business. It’s our specialty.
- Our custom rubber molding can be used for high or low volume production, we don’t shy away from very large orders, and we proudly accept small orders that our competitors can’t afford.
- We offer a variety of services including rubber to metal bonding and custom silicone to metal bonding projects. We can bond any of our custom formulations to materials such as brass, aluminum, steel, and even glass-filled nylon to perfectly meet your needs.
Application
Some applications that benefit from LSR injection molding include:
- Medical device and patientinterface components
- LED lenses and optics
- Electrical connectors and seals
- Infant bottle nipples, pacifers,and toys
- Plumbing gaskets and seals
- Soft touch buttons/handles andappliance components
- Consumer goods

Advantages of Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR) Molding
LSR injection molding offers custom manufacturing opportunities and is a popular solution due to its ability to mold complex part geometries, excellent mechanical properties and purity. Other benefits include:
- High tear strength.
- Great optical clarity to maximize light transmittance.
- UV resistant.
- Biocompatible.
- Low compression set.
- Excellent chemical resistance.
- Withstands harsh environments ranging from low to high temperatureextremes.
- Ability to overmold and bond onto a variety of substrates, such asplastics and metals.
- Customizable additives such as antimicrobial, electrical conduction, self-lubricating and antistatic.
