LATHE CUT PARTS
Introduction
ARCHER is a premier manufacturer of precision
lathe cut seals and gaskets. We custom manufacture these products to
your exact requirements in a wide variety of polymers and sizes. A
lathe cut seal is also known as a “square cut” or “rectangular
cross-section” seal. ARCHER components are manufactured from a
cylindrical rubber tube extruded from premium sealing grade
materials. The extrusion process is closely controlled to insure the
tubing has the proper inside diameter (ID) and wall thickness. The
tubing is then vulcanized in a high pressure autoclave utilizing an
exact mandrel to form the inside diameter. Once the tube is cured,
the product is ground on very specialized lathe type grinding
machines. This operation finalizes the outside diameter (OD) or wall
thickness to the proper specification. The desired cut thickness is
achieved by using a specialized carbide cutting tool on a computer
controlled automatic cutting machines.
