Customer Pain Points and Zong Yih Rubber Solutions

  1. Saltwater Corrosion and Marine Environmental Exposure
    Marine parts are continuously exposed to saltwater and humid air, causing rubber materials to corrode and degrade.
    Solution:
    Zong Yih Rubber offers specialized rubber compounds resistant to saltwater corrosion and high humidity, effectively extending the service life of seals and vibration isolation parts, ensuring stable ship operations.

  2. High Vibration and Mechanical Loads
    Strong vibrations and mechanical loads from engines and propulsion systems can cause rubber components to fatigue and fail.
    Solution:
    We focus on compound formulation and structural reinforcement to provide highly wear-resistant and fatigue-resistant rubber vibration products, enhancing equipment reliability and longevity.

  3. Extreme Climate and Temperature Variations
    Marine environments experience drastic temperature swings and intense UV exposure, accelerating rubber aging.
    Solution:
    Zong Yih selects rubber compounds with excellent UV resistance and wide temperature tolerance to withstand harsh marine climate conditions.
