Compression Pump Inlays — Moulded Elastomer Inserts

Moulded elastomer inlays for compression pumps, made to your drawing or sample. Silicone to +220 °C for clean, high-temperature duty; FKM where the medium is aggressive; NBR where it is oil — one part, three compounds, chosen on what the pump handles.

Key advantages

Why Specifiers Choose Margo

  • The medium picks the compound

    Tell us what the pump handles and how hot it runs. Silicone for clean high-temperature duty, FKM for aggressive chemistry, NBR for oil — and we will say when the cheaper one is enough.

  • Silicone is not an oil compound

    It has the widest temperature range of the three and the weakest abrasion resistance, and it swells in hot mineral oil. If your pump handles oil, specify NBR or FKM — saying so is cheaper than a failed inlay.

  • Compression set decides service life

    An inlay that takes a permanent set stops sealing while it still looks correct. We test compression set in-house to ASTM D395 Method B and report it with every consignment.

  • Food or pharmaceutical duty needs a named approval

    Silicone is physiologically inert, but that is a material property, not a certificate. Tell us which scheme your market requires and we will confirm what we can supply against it.

Global Applications

Manufacturing process

From Compound to Certification

  1. Material compounding

    Polymer blending, additive integration and batch QC in our in-house lab. The silicone grade is set here against the medium and the temperature, before any dimension matters.

  2. Mould design and CNC tool manufacture, in-house, held as a controlled record. Tooling is compound-specific

    Silicone and FKM shrink differently, so one part in three compounds is not one tool.

  3. Compression Moulding

    Hydraulic press cycles at controlled temperature and pressure profiles per product spec.

  4. Post-cure and trimming

    Silicone parts are oven post-cured to drive off residual volatiles, which is what gives the compound its full temperature performance and low odour.

  5. Quality inspection

    Dimensional check, hardness, and compression set on batch samples to ASTM D395 Method B.

  6. Export packaging

    Industrial packing with documentation. ISPM-15 treated pallets where timber packaging is used. Inlays are packed uncompressed, since an insert stored under load arrives already set.

Quality assurance

Certified to International Standards

Every product leaves our facility with a documentation package — material test reports, dimensional inspection sheets and a certificate of conformance — giving traceability from raw material to finished part.

FAQ

Technical & Commercial Questions

Answers to the most common questions from engineering teams and procurement managers worldwide.

  • What is the minimum order quantity for this part?

    We supply in bulk. The minimum run is 10,000 pieces per part number, per compound — and because silicone, FKM and NBR shrink differently, each compound needs its own tool. Prototype and first-article lots sit outside the minimum.

  • Can you match a competitor specification or reverse-engineer an existing part?

    Yes. Send the worn inlay and tell us what the pump handles and how hot it runs — a used insert has taken a compression set and measures thinner than moulded, so we work to the housing and the free thickness, not to the sample.

  • What file formats do you accept for drawings?

    PDF, DWG, DXF and STEP. Mark the housing bore, the free thickness and the working compression — and state the medium and temperature, which decide the compound before any dimension matters.

  • Do you provide material test reports with each shipment?

    Yes. Material test reports, dimensional inspection sheets and a certificate of conformance ship with every consignment. Hardness, tensile to ASTM D412 and compression set to ASTM D395 Method B are tested in-house. We do not hold food-contact or pharmaceutical approvals — tell us which scheme you need and we will confirm what we can supply.

  • What are your payment and delivery terms for international orders?

    TT and LC accepted, discussed per order. Ex-works Nashik or FOB Nhava Sheva. Commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin are issued with every consignment.

  • FKM vs NBR: Which Rubber Is Right for Your Application?

    Compares fluorocarbon and nitrile across temperature, chemical resistance and cost-in-use — FKM −20 to +250 °C, NBR −30 to +120 °C. FKM is the answer where temperature or aggressive media demand it; NBR is the answer everywhere else, and it costs a fraction as much.

Need this part quoted?

Send your drawing or a sample, and tell us what the pump handles and how hot it runs. We confirm compound, hardness and working compression — and say when a cheaper compound will do — then quote against your annual quantity. We respond within 48 hours.
