Britech Rubber Stoppers & Rubber Tips

Britech Industries – Rubber Stoppers

A fundamental part of scientific experimentation and laboratory work is using rubber stoppers that are small accessories used to plug holes, seal containers, serve as insulation, and offer protection. Though laboratory rubber stoppers are identified with laboratory and scientific use, they are found in a variety of applications due to their durability, strength, and ability to form a solid tight secure seal.

Using the highest quality rubber materials, Britech Industries produces the highest quality laboratory rubber stoppers designed and produced to meet the ever-growing demands of laboratory environments. One of the main considerations in conditions where chemicals are present is safety and the protection of workers. At the top of the list of measures taken to ensure the safety of workers is rubber stoppers that tightly seal flasks, tubes, and containers to keep liquids, gases, and chemicals contained regardless of how the container is handled.

Types of Britech Stoppers

Rubber stoppers come in several sizes, types, shapes, and configurations. Solid stoppers are the most common, which have a cylindrical shape that is tapered on one end. This type of laboratory rubber stopper tightly seals a container such that the contents can be mixed, easily stored, and controlled.

The second variety of laboratory rubber stoppers are ones with a single hole through the top of the stopper that allows access to the contents without removing the stopper. This configuration allows technicians and scientists to add chemicals to a specimen, test its temperature, and insert other instruments to take readings.

Ribbed laboratory rubber stoppers are engineered to provide an extra layer of protection and security. They are non-slip and exceptionally reliable stoppers chosen for the tight seal they create when placed. As with all of Britech Industries laboratory stoppers, ribbed ones are made of durable 40 durometer natural rubber and have the same impact resistance and flexibility of our other stoppers.

Britech Industries is well aware of the many demands of laboratory technicians and the types of work they perform. The specially trained professional staff at Britech Industries works diligently and tirelessly to ensure the laboratory rubber stoppers we produce are more than capable of meeting the demands required. From initial processing to the final product, each step of the process is carefully monitored and examined.

Britech Industries – Rubber Tips

Rubber tips are referred to as crutch and cane tips or non-slip tips. Britech Industries manufactures high quality rubber tips using carefully selected rubber materials that are guaranteed to protect crutch ends as well as a secure tight fit for excellent support and cushioning.
 
The purpose of rubber tips is to provide traction, friction, and grip for crutches to prevent slippage or movement after a cane or crutch is placed. When a person is using a crutch, the most important aspect of it is that it provides stability such that they can easily lean on it and be assured that it will not fail. The meticulous engineering of Britech Industries’ rubber tips guarantees excellent performance without any concern for falling or accidents.

Features of Britech Industries Rubber Tips

Rubber tips come in a wide variety of sizes to meet the needs of different body types and the diameters of the tips of different crutches. Britech Industries produces standard sized rubber tips with reinforced side walls based on their many years of experience in the rubber manufacturing business with diameter sizes that range from 1/2” up to 1 1/8”. Regardless of the different diameters, the thickness and quality of the rubber material remain the same.

To prevent failure and ensure excellent performance, the side walls of Britech Industries rubber tips are double reinforced to be able to withstand the different styles of patient movement. The ends of our rubber tips will not wear, crack, or split due to the thickness of the rubber and its secure bond.
 
All rubber tips must have two characteristics, which are hardness and flexibility. They must be hard enough to withstand mistreatment and pressure but flexible enough to provide a smooth cushion. Each of the qualities are engineered and designed into every one of Britech Industries’ rubber tips.
