Parco
Parco is based in Ontario, CA. They are an
industry leader in the development of proprietary compounds and bonding
techniques and make high performance seals. Founded in 1941, Parco was the
first manufacturer to specialize in O-rings, which is still their primary
product. Parco's 154,000 square foot facility is one of the largest O-ring
plants in the world.
Parco makes custom molded rubber products,
including rubber to metal bonded parts, and they import and resell molded
rubber seals. Their seals are available in 340 different compounds, more than
25 percent of which were introduced in the last five years. Parco can provide
samples of their compounds within 10 working days. If parts are needed faster,
then Parco's Rapid Prototype Program is the answer. The program is designed to
offer economical, low quantity production of contoured back-up rings, standard
and non-standard size O-rings, as well as simple and large custom molded shapes
in as few as three working days.
Parco also offers a line of
competitively priced import products, which includes: |

Biodiesel
Biodiesel is a clean burning
alternative fuel that is produced from domestic, renewable resources. It
contains no petroleum, but it can be added to petroleum diesel to create a
blended fuel. Biodiesel blends can be used in any diesel engines that have
little or no modifications. Biodiesel is simple to use, biodegradable,
nontoxic, and essentially free of sulfur and aromatics. Biodiesel is better for
the environment than 100% petroleum fuels and it is made from natural,
renewable resources.
Parco recognized the increased use of Biodiesel in diesel
engines so they decided to test some of their own compounds. Parco nitrile
(NBR), hydrogenated nitrile (HNBR), and fluorocarbon (FKM) compounds tested
well with Biodiesel applications. Fluorocarbon materials are preferred for
higher temperature Biodiesel applications while nitrile and hydrogenated
nitriles are suitable for lower temperatures.

Parco USP
Class VI Compound
Parco has released a new
compound that meets USP Class VI for use in pharmaceutical manufacturing. Due
to the ever-increasing standards that exist in the pharmaceutical industry,
more and more companies are requiring this conformance. Parco's fluorocarbon
9163-70 is a compound that can be used in applications that require very
sterile environments. It can be used with milk and edible oils.
9163-70 is internally
lubricated with Teflon®. It also has excellent high temperature resistance
and is ideal for dynamic applications. 9163-70 can be used in injection
molding. |
