Half rounds are shaped like a half-moon and used in applications ranging from food and pharmaceutical processing to automotive, marine, manufacturing, and construction. They are produced as rubber profiles in standard and custom sizes, and then fabricated into rubber gaskets that provide sealing and insulation.
