Reliable Products, Inc., is a leading custom manufacturer of extruded rubber products since 1969. It was the commitment to excellence that Mr. C.T. Easley made that kept Reliable Products at the forefront of the rubber extruding industry.Cherrian Elizabeth Easley took over as President in 2000. Also joining the RPI Team in 2000 was Roger Switzer as Plant Mgr. Over the years, Reliable Products, Inc. has been lucky to have great employees to work with us as a team.

We extrude custom-shaped profiles and tubing in a variety of hardnesses (40D – 80D) and colors in the following materials:  EPDM  Nitrile (Buna N) (See also Mixing) Neoprene  SBR (FDA approved)  MIL-R Specs 6855, 900, 3065   These can be run in commercial grades as well as premium grades. Our sizes are limited only to 3/16″ dia. minimum to 4-1/2″ dia. maximum. We have 7 extruders of various sizes.   We do not produce sheeting.   Tubing that must retain a round shape can be formed on “mandrels” or “poles.”   We use a steam curing process in either 20′ maximum straight lengths or up to 250′ continuous coils (depending upon the size of part) and can be spooled on request

We provide a variety of cutting methods. They are:   Lathe Cut – (as thin as .062″ or as thick as 19″) ID must be at least 1″ for lathe cut.  Throp Cut – Washers can be cut at a high rate of speed to thicknesses as low as .125″.  Guillotine Cut – For larger lengths and cross sectionsWe currently custom mix our own compounds. This helps reduce lead times and helps us remain cost effective. We are also in process of initiating some changes that will greatly enhance our Technical Support.We produce a variety of tubular gasket sizes, colors, lengths and materials. We do not splice EPDM or Nitrile. We can splice some profiles such as “u” channels, solid cord, etc. In addition we can splice tubes into “Endless Gaskets” for all your Pail & Drum gasket needs
