Aerospace and
Medical Equipment manufacturers, as mandated by
the FAA, FDA, and other agencies...as well as more ordinary applications.

Prompt Personal Service by a real person...Guaranteed!
Established in 1967, Metro
Industries, Inc., (MI Rubber and Gasket) is a world-class manufacturer
and distributor of commercial rubber products and a wide variety of
custom fabricated, mostly non-metallic components.
As a leading
supplier of standard rubber gaskets and seals like O-Rings,
Rubber Washers,
Flange Gaskets,
Rubber Grommets, and
Sponge Stripping (weather stripping), MI boldly publishes price and discount schedules wherever
possible (an ongoing project). As a key custom
component supplier for dozens of classes of equipment
manufacturers, many requiring substantial qualifications, we are
quite adept at serving the often complex concerns of corporate
purchasing agents and component design engineers.
Whether the requirement is small or large, ordinary or unusual, or from
an established customer or not...we guarantee that a trained sales technician or
engineer will review your requirement and personally respond to your
inquiry within one business day, though we usually acknowledge inquiries within
an hour or two during normal business hours. More time may be
required to completely answer some inquiries, but we'll keep you informed of the
status according to this policy.

Is NOW too late?
Although
we run a tight schedule in order to maintain our consistent 99%+ on-time rate,
we will and often do perform virtual miracles on rush requirements. We
guarantee that a real person will personally do everything possible to meet your
need, no matter how impossible it may seem.
How can we help?
Whether you're looking for prototypes, samples or
technical assistance, standard rubber gaskets, o-rings, seals or other products,
or a top notch fabricator for your custom die cut, extruded, molded or waterjet
cut components, we want your business. Given a chance, we'll earn it, too.
All we need is an opportunity to prove ourselves worthy, and that can be as
simple as faxing or emailing us a request for quote.

Specializing in
Special
Our staff's decades of combined experience developing gaskets, seals, and
other parts for nearly every industry under the sun is a resource we
offer free for the asking. Of course, there are limits, but we're
always willing to field technical questions about material properties and
specifications, sealing issues, and other component part design concerns.
When possible, we'll provide samples or prototypes at little or no cost and consult with engineers through the completion of a project.
We are proud of many of innovations we have
introduced as problem-solving solutions to difficult sealing or
component design problems, many of which have spawned improvements and
enhancements to our own manufacturing processes. This is how we've
developed processes like Adhesives
Laminating, Sewing,
Screen Printing, Snap & Rivet Insertion, and various
other
Machining, Assembly, and other processes that
complement our primary capacities like die cutting, slitting,
shearing, molding, extruding, and waterjet
cutting.
