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.
