Rubber sole moulds
Rubber soles are produced by curing a rubber compound under heat and pressure in the mould. They are chosen where deep treads and abrasion resistance matter.
Sole material
Rubber
Production method
Compression (vulcanisation)
Best for
Outdoor, work and safety footwear; hard-wearing outsoles
How it is produced
- 01The rubber compound is prepared and placed in the mould.
- 02The mould closes in the press; heat and pressure are applied.
- 03The rubber cures and takes its final shape.
- 04The mould opens, the sole is removed and deflashed.
What we design for
- Flash channels and the parting line
- Mould rigidity under press pressure
- Material flow and venting in deep treads
- Tread geometry that releases cleanly
What we need for a quotation
- A model file, technical drawing or physical sample
- Size run
- Sole material and the production machine it will run on
- Estimated quantity and target date
