About Nitrile (NBR or Buna-N) Diaphragms
| Rubber Diaphragms with good elasticity level are reckoned as specially designed membranes that are fitted between two chambers on their circumference. Depending on pressure level, these diaphragms change their position by shifting one chamber slightly upward or downward over another chamber. The unique flexibility of these diaphragms is useful for inhibiting conveyance of working fluid between two chambers by enabling the effects of pressure to pass the barrier sans interchanging any media. The rubber made diaphragms are of two types. The Static variation of these items is instrumental in isolation of two different fluids and it moves slightly or remains fixed. Their dynamic variant acts as suitable sealing medium between fixed and movable items and has key role in transferring pressure or force. Diaphragm seal is used to get accurate response during change of pneumatic or hydraulic pressure. These diaphragms are used as essential sealing components for smooth operation of different machinery utilized in automotive, oil and gas refineries, aerospace manufacturing, valve production, medical instruments and pump manufacturing industries. MREW is involved in manufacturing of wide array of diaphragms that are meant for ensuring trouble free functioning of pressure sensors in pneumatic systems, pumps, control valves for accurate flow controlling purpose, pneumatic diaphragm pumps, wax actuators, high pressure diaphragm pumps, thermal actuators, diaphragm pressure gauges, pneumatic actuators, diaphragm vacuum pumps, actuators, diaphragm air compressors, diaphragm metering pumps and diaphragm fuel pumps. We have expertise in manufacturing of Rubber Diaphragms that have been made by using EPDM, silicon, neoprene, viton,natural, nitrile and other grades of rubber. |
High-Performance Sealing Solutions
Nitrile rubber diaphragms deliver outstanding oil and fuel resistance, a crucial feature in automotive, fuel handling, and industrial applications. Their impressive elasticity ensures reliable performance in dynamic sealing environments where flexibility is essential. Adaptable to a range of temperatures and pressures, these diaphragms withstand challenging operating conditions, providing long service life and minimizing maintenance downtime. Their popularity stems from both their robust construction and their customizable dimensions.
Versatile Customization for Your Needs
Our NBR diaphragms are available in a variety of widths, diameters (up to 1000mm), thicknesses (0.5mm to 5mm), and surface finishes (smooth, matte, or textured). Custom and standard sizes are easily accommodated. Reinforcement types such as nylon, polyester, or cotton can be added, or bonded metal inserts for specialized applications. This flexibility ensures optimal fit and function in automotive, chemical, pumping, and hydraulic systems.
FAQs of Nitrile (NBR or Buna-N) Diaphragms:
Q: How are Nitrile (NBR/Buna-N) diaphragms typically manufactured?
A: Nitrile diaphragms are produced using either injection or compression molding. The specific method and constructionsingle or multi-layer, with or without bonded metal insertsare chosen based on performance requirements and application demands.Q: What are the primary benefits of using NBR diaphragms in fuel or oil applications?
A: NBR diaphragms exhibit high resistance to oil and fuel, low gas permeability, and superior flexibility. This makes them ideal for reliable sealing in fuel systems, pumps, valves, and other equipment exposed to hydrocarbons and harsh chemicals.Q: When should a diaphragm with reinforcement or bonded metal insert be specified?
A: Diaphragms with nylon, polyester, or cotton reinforcement or bonded metal inserts are recommended for applications requiring increased mechanical strength, dimensional stability, or compatibility with metal housings, such as in automotive systems and industrial pumps.Q: Where are these diaphragms commonly used?
A: They are widely utilized in automotive fuel systems, mining pumps, oil & gas industry equipment, chemical plant machinery, and hydraulic devices requiring dependable oil and fuel resistance.Q: What is the typical temperature and pressure range for these diaphragms?
A: NBR diaphragms function reliably from -40C up to +120C (intermittently to +135C) and can handle operating pressures up to 10 bar, depending on their design and thickness.Q: How does the flex life and compression set of these diaphragms benefit industrial applications?
A: Boasting high flex life and a compression set of 25% after 22 hours at 100C, these diaphragms maintain their sealing integrity and elasticity over extended periods, reducing the frequency of replacements and maintenance.Q: What customization options are available for NBR diaphragms?
A: Options include varying thickness (0.5 to 5mm), diameter (up to 1000mm), reinforcement type, bonded metal inserts, and surface finishes. Sizes and shapes can be tailored to meet both standard and special client requirements.
