Military vehicles from tanks to HGVs, ribs to submarines.

Defence

We have been market leaders in the defence industry for 30 years

The Defence Market gives our skilled and experienced technical teams the opportunity to develop customised solutions where performance and reliability are critical.

Working to national and international military specifications we have full technical and engineering resources to support state of the art manufacture and our ISO 9001 quality system.

Our flexibility and understanding of the need to resolve performance issues, often within a tight time frame, mean we are problem solvers.

Large volume manufacturing runs or one-off specials all command the same high level of expertise and commitment.

Our products can be found on today’s modern military vehicles from AFV to HGV’s to Aircraft Carriers and Submarines.

Our range includes Hatch Seals, Inflatable Seals, Fighting Vehicle Seals and Trims and Moulded Rubber Parts to assist with vibration and sound dampening.

By way of example, as part of our extensive portfolio, we were asked to provide seals for an aircraft carrier deck lift.

The design had to provide a water tight seal to avoid water ingress from the deck to the main boat during normal operation at sea. The design included two seals developed by our technical team each in excess of 45m long and provided endless. The primary seal is a lip seal that stays in contact with the lift at all times forming a seal and as a secondary seal we designed an inflatable seal that provides the full seal.

Both items were shipped to the aircraft carrier abroad along with our technician and installed during a refit. These seals are currently fitted to several in service aircraft carriers in the navies of several countries.
