About Conquest Seal

Quality system and certificate CONQ-001

Conquest Seal's quality management system is registered to AS9100D under certificate CONQ-001, whose scope reads, verbatim: "Manufacturer/distributor of O-rings, custom molded rubber and plastic products for the aerospace, defense and commercial applications." The O-rings, molded rubber and plastic parts in that scope are supplied as a distributor. The certificate covers the system that handles each order, the sourcing and the paperwork; it is not a product qualification, and no part carries it. The certificate PDF, its dates and how to verify the registration in the OASIS database are on the certificate page.

How parts are cut or sourced

Conquest Seal cuts gaskets in house on its own waterjet in Orange, to the customer's drawing; the custom gaskets page covers how. O-rings, hydraulic and radial shaft seals, custom molded rubber, rubber-to-metal bonded parts, plastic parts machined to print and mechanical seals are bought from the manufacturer or its distribution network, and the quote names the manufacturer. Specification parts are made by manufacturers on the relevant qualified products list, where the document has one, and commercial parts by approved manufacturers. The products page lists every line.

From quote to certificate of conformance

Send a part number, an AS568 dash number or a drawing, with the material or specification callout and the quantity, through the request-a-quote page. A person reads the request and replies within one business day, and the quote names the certificate of conformance the order will ship with. The parts come from the manufacturer or its distribution network, and a gasket is cut on the waterjet to the drawing. Every lot is received against the purchase order and the specification, with its identity, quantity and paperwork checked. The order ships with a packing list, Conquest Seal's certificate of conformance and, where the specification or the order requires it, the manufacturer's certificate.

What the certificate of conformance names

Every order ships with a certificate of conformance naming the part number, the specification, the manufacturer, the lot, the quantity and the manufacturer's cure date. The cure date is the elastomer maker's, so receiving can check a lot's age against the program's limit; a part with no cure, such as PTFE, has none to print. The manufacturer's own certificate ships with specification parts, a batch test report goes with the order where the program requires it and the manufacturer issues one, and an AS9102 first article report is available on request. The certificate of conformance guide explains what each line proves.

Records and counterfeit prevention

Conquest Seal keeps the quality records behind each order, including its certificates of conformance and the manufacturers' certificates. Certificates are kept permanently for customers whose contracts require it and for 15 years otherwise, and digital records from 2020 on are kept indefinitely. A written procedure for preventing counterfeit products covers monitoring, detection and awareness, and Conquest Seal's purchase orders bar suppliers from shipping counterfeit or suspect counterfeit goods. The compliance documents page lists what a purchasing team usually asks for, and the supplier requirements page sets out the clauses Conquest Seal's suppliers work to.
