At first glance, rubber and felt might seem like an unlikely duo—one built for durability and flexibility, the other for cushioning and absorption. But when combined, they create a sealing solution engineered for long-lasting performance in demanding environments. Our collection of American-made molded seals are designed to go the distance—delivering reliability, adaptability, and protection where it matters most.

When you partner with Provident, you're in good company. 🤝 Building on 30+ years of valuable experience, we support flexo and gravure printers with innovative products and the technical expertise to match. But don’t just take it from us:

"I've been in the printing industry for over 32 years. During this time, I've seen a laundry list of product come and go. Some better than others. However, none that have truly stood the test of time. That's until we started using Provident Blades & End Seals... Provident is the only blade and end seal we will ever use. Whatever you guys are doing over there? Please don't change a thing."�— John E. Watkins

Why choose between foam or felt seals when you can enjoy the benefits of both? By pairing foam with felt, you get a solution that delivers the rebound you need with the lubrication and durability you can count on. Our hybrid design helps reduce wear, extend seal life, and keep your press running smoothly.

🇺🇸 Like all of our other seals, these are proudly American-made and built to match your exact press specifications, making the ordering process easier than ever. Learn more about our customizable collection of end seals 👉 https://providentblades.com/end-seals/
