Pierce-Roberts
Rubber in the
Aerospace Industry
Pierce-Roberts Rubber Company is
a leader in rubber part production
for the aerospace industry. Rocket
propulsion…space exploration…optimum
aircraft performance…Pierce-Roberts
has a reputation for innovation and
reliability in the manufacturing of
the necessary rubber parts.
Satellite Equipment
Satellites are essential to today’s
technology. The world relies on satellite
communication, radio or television
broadcasting, weather monitoring,
GPS navigation, etc. The requirements
for the design and construction of
satellites are strict. Satellites
must operate in extreme conditions
while maintaining dependability. Pierce-Roberts
rubber parts use durable elastomer
materials that resist damage even
in the harsh environment of space.
Pierce-Roberts streamlines satellite
assembly by detecting potential problems
early. The result is optimum turnaround.
Pierce-Roberts has the knowledge,
experience, and tools that reduce
redesigning and delays in satellite
equipment releases.
Rocket Motor Housings
Understanding the complexity of rocket
propulsion has allowed humans to begin
the exploration of space. Rocket motors
burn solid grain propellant to generate
large amounts of thrust necessary
to leave the planet. If these motors
fail, the lives of explorers and their
missions are jeopardized. Trust Pierce-Roberts
for the rubber parts that help house
rocket motors safely and effectively.
Conductive Rubber Gaskets
Pierce-Roberts conductive rubber gaskets
have the same resilience as a silicone
sponge. As the thin conductive dispersion
cures, a very flexible and resilient
surface is formed. Soft. Medium. Firm.
Pierce-Roberts rubber gaskets can
be custom molded to exact density
specifications.
Conductive Rubber Pads
Pierce-Roberts rocket motor rubber
mounting pads protect solid fuel rocket
motors by cushioning motor housings
against impact and excessive vibration.
They are bonded to aluminum and steel
chocks and support structures with
conductive silicone rubber adhesive.
A carbon-filled conductive silicone
coating is applied to edges of pads
to complete the grounding path. Pads
are custom-designed to precise dimensions
based on rocket motor specifications.
