I.B. Moore Manufacturing has spent decades helping energy companies address their most challenging sealing issues. We manufacture and distribute oil and gas O-rings that prevent catastrophic leaks in systems where temperatures fluctuate from below freezing to over 400°F, with high pressures reaching thousands of PSI....
Modern vehicles rely on countless precision-engineered sealing components to work properly, and I.B. Moore Manufacturing produces and distributes these parts. We consider automotive o-rings and automotive gaskets to be the unsung heroes that prevent fluid leaks, maintain pressure, and support reliable operation across every vehicle...
When aircraft climb to cruising altitude or spacecraft launch into orbit, there's no room for equipment failure. Every component must perform flawlessly because lives and missions depend on it. Sealing solutions are some of the most critical parts in these systems, and I.B. Moore Manufacturing...
Molded gaskets are custom-made seals formed by pressing rubber or similar materials into specific shapes. Think of them like making ice cubes—the material is poured into a mold and takes that exact shape as it sets. This creates a seal shape that fits specific equipment...
O-rings are one of our most commonly used gaskets, but other categories also deserve your attention. Take V-rings and V-seals, for example. The experts at I.B. Moore Manufacturing recommend these specialized sealing components to address challenges that conventional O-rings cannot solve. The distinctive geometry makes...
Sealing solutions play leading roles in numerous mechanical systems, ranging from hydraulic equipment to car engines. And while you might be familiar with O-rings (simple, circle-shaped gaskets that prevent leaks), there's another type of seal that offers key advantages in specific situations. X-rings, also known as...
Synthetic elastomers are human-made rubber-like materials that provide specific properties natural rubber cannot deliver, like improved chemical resistance or temperature stability. Nitrile rubber, commonly known as NBR or Buna-N, is a prime example of one used in seal manufacturing. NBR O-rings have earned a solid reputation...
Gasket failures lead to unplanned shutdowns, damaged equipment, and the need to find replacements. However, the culprit isn't always a manufacturing defect or improper installation; in other cases, the gasket cannot withstand the chemicals it encounters. At I.B. Moore Manufacturing, our experts inform clients that chemical...
Consider an industrial application like chemical processing that involves extreme temperatures or corrosive substances. Standard rubber seals would fail catastrophically within minutes, causing equipment damage and costly downtime. For these kinds of applications, the experts at I.B. Moore Manufacturing often recommend FFKM O-rings, which have...
You might not think much about the small rubber rings that keep your equipment running smoothly, but selecting the right O-ring material makes all the difference in performance and reliability. These seemingly simple components actually require careful consideration of your specific operating conditions. Think about your...
