Sioux Rubber & Urethane Blog

We have been creating rubber and urethane solutions for common abrasion and impact issues for 60+ years. We’ve served customers in a variety of industries and created solutions for countless applications. At this point, we often say “we’ve seen it all”, and it’s true -- we’ve seen a lot. Even so, we’re still surprised by some of the unique challenges that arise when our customers are met with a head-scratching abrasion, impact, or corrosion issue. Honestly, we love to be challenged! If you think you’ve got an issue that has no potential fix, you’d be surprised how creative we can be with size, durometer (hardness), and other rubber and urethane properties. Let’s take a look at some of the reasons to opt for a custom rubber solution for your unique issues.

Have you found yourself with a head-scratching abrasion or impact issue? Perhaps your situation or equipment is uncommon, and you need something beyond a typical one-size-fits-all rubber solution. Fortunately, we can confidently say we’ve seen your problem before. Our experienced, highly skilled team is ready and waiting to tackle even the most puzzling custom jobs. It’s what we do best! Now, let’s zoom in on the steps we take to create the perfect customized solution for our customers.

Not every impact, abrasion and corrosion issue has a one-size-fits-all solution. At Sioux Rubber & Urethane, we understand this better than anyone. That’s why we use our 40-plus years of experience to care for custom rubber products to solve every possible issue that comes our customers’ way.

Rubber is one of nature’s most durable, resilient materials. It originally comes from the South American tree Hevea Brasiliensis and used for centuries before being manufactured for industrial use in the 1700s. Today we primarily use synthetic rubber, specifically SBR (Styrene-Butadiene Rubber). The reason why we love rubber so much is that it comes in many forms and does many things!

Have an unusual piece of machinery or product that could benefit from some vibration control or corrosion resistance? We can help by covering it in rubber or urethane. In fact, one of the cornerstones of our business is our custom rubber and urethane coverings and coatings that we create specifically for your unique needs. 

Need to solve an impact, abrasion or corrosion problem on a unique piece of machinery? No problem. Sioux Rubber & Urethane has you covered, literally, with our proprietary Endurawear rubber. We specialize in customer rubber projects from recovering an existing part, covering something new in rubber and even creating an entirely new piece from scratch.
