Our history in few lines

Fondée en 1963, la société JAKMOUSSE est spécialisée dans la distribution de bracelets élastiques en caoutchouc naturel.

Notre société a assis sa réputation et sa notoriété sur des gages de qualité : souplesse, résistance, non irritant pour la peau, extra léger (rendement maximum au kg.)

Depuis plus de 50 ans, nos bracelets élastiques ont établi leur renommée dans des milieux aussi divers que l’agriculture, l’industrie, la papeterie, le conditionnement

Nos dernières innovations sur le produit nous ont conduit a nous diversifier dans de nouveaux domaines tel que : la Mode, le Design et la Sérigraphie.

Quelque Notions de Base — Bracelets Elastiques

Comment Mesurer un Bracelet Elastique
Les Bracelets Elastiques sont mesurés via trois dimensions: Longueur, Largeur et l’Epaisseur. — [ consultez notre tableau avec les tailles disponibiles ]

flatlength 1. Pincez une des bracelet élastique à chaque extrémité comme pour jeter les plats de bande. La distance de l’extrémité de fin est la longueur de la bande.
cutwidth 2. Mesures de la largeur de bande, perpendiculaire à la longueur.
wallthickness 3. La mesure d’épaisseur de la paroi de la bande. Epaisseur est généralement comprise entre 1,1 mm – 2,5 mm.

 

Terminologie Commune — Bracelets Elastiques

Common filler in rubber band compounds. There is no such thing as a 100% pure rubber band. All compounds require the addition of other materials to create a finished product.
The formula for a particular rubber band compound. With over 80 years of experience and product development, Jakmousse has designed specific compounds with varying stretch performance to create application specific bands (soft stretch vs. tight stretch).
The process by which a compound reaches its final intended state through heat, chemical reaction, evaporation, etc.
Bands that require a “custom” production run. Includes variations in wall thickness and or flat length and non-standard colors.
With the band laying flat, this would be measured across the band perpendicular to the flat length.
Measure of the hardness of non-metallic materials or “resistance to indentation.”
Generic term for various elastic substances resembling rubber
extension or “stretch” of a rubber band
(ETHYLENE PROPYLENE DIENE MONOMER) Synthetic rubber compound which provides superior properties for outdoor and all-weather temperature applications because of its excellent resistance to ozone, oxidants and severe weather conditions.
The process of creating rubber tubing in a defined shape by forcing uncured material through a die.
Pinch the two ends of the band together and lay on a flat surface. The measurement from end to end equals the flat length. (If you were to cut one end of the band and unfold it, the flat length would be approximately half the overall length)
Many plants produce latex, which oozes from cuts and injuries as a milky sap. Rubber is a coagulated, elastic latex containing long-chain hydrocarbons.
Containing no latex proteins. Jakmousse offers a custom line of bands produced from synthetic polyisoprene (synthetic rubber) for applications with potential allergic reactions to latex proteins.
The ability of a rubber band to return to its original shape after being stretched.
Ratio of stress to strain. Also expressed as the tensile strength at a given percentage of elongation.
Variation in standard cut width or packaging versus standard bands.
After a rubber band has been stretched, it will typically come to rest at a longer length than before it was stretched. This increase in length is commonly referred to as “permanent set” and is expressed as a percent of the original length of the band.
The extent to which a rubber band does not return to its original shape after being stretched.
the ratio of the density (weight) of a substance to the density of water.
Jakmousse currently offers several hundred of the most common sizes of rubber bands. These are produced in four distinct lines (with varying stretch performance and count per pound) and a variety of colors. Deviations from standard items are classified as either non-standard or “custom”.
resistance of a material to stretch. Typically expressed as pounds per inch at the breaking point of a particular rubber band.
the allowable deviation from a standard; the range of variation permitted in maintaining a specified dimension.
Elongation at point of failure.
The curing process of rubber which cross-links the molecules into a strong chain, giving the rubber its stretch and strength. This is achieved through the application of heat combined with the appropriate chemicals.
Refers to the thickness of the wall of the extruded rubber tube.
The number of rubber bands per gram.

La Fabrication
Les bracelet élastique sont fabriqués par extrusion du caoutchouc dans un long tube de fournir sa forme générale, en mettant les tubes sur des mandrins, le durcissement du caoutchouc par la chaleur, puis le trancher à travers la largeur du tube en petites bandes. Cela provoque le tube pour diviser en plusieurs sections, la création d’une bracelet élastique.

 

Notre Produits sont Evironmentally Friendly

 

 

 

La marée montante de la conscience de l’environnement a mis l’hévéaculture à la lumière favorable. La pollution atmosphérique de la libération de «effet de serre», en particulier le dioxyde de carbone, provenant de la combustion de combustibles fossiles et l’appauvrissement des forêts, en particulier les forêts tropicales humides, ont été vu avec une grande préoccupation.

Des études ont montré que les arbres à caoutchouc convertir le dioxyde de carbone à un taux comparable à voire meilleure que celle de la forêt naturelle. Le potentiel de caoutchouc naturel pour séquestrer le carbone de l’atmosphère pour soutenir l’écosystème est largement reconnu et adopté pour la création de nouvelles forêts ou à des fins de reboisement.

En plus d’être respectueux de l’environnement, la plupart de nos bracelet élastique sont fabriqués à partir de latex, une ressource renouvelable rapidement.
