CUSTOM SEALING GASKETS & DIE CUTTING
Industrial Sealing Gaskets and Cut-to-Shape Solutions
A machine is only as reliable as its protection. Whether keeping dust out of an electrical enclosure or preventing fluids from leaking out of a flange, the humble gasket is a critical component. Graphie provides custom Sealing Gasket production services, delivering precision-cut seals tailored to the exact geometry of your equipment.
We do not just sell rolls of foam; we engineer and cut specific shapes designed to solve your ingress protection challenges. From heavy-duty outdoor machinery to delicate electronic assemblies, we manufacture the barrier you need to ensure operational integrity.
High-Performance Materials
The effectiveness of a gasket depends entirely on choosing the right material for the environment. We stock and process a wide range of industrial substrates, including specialized branded foams:
-
Neoprene: The industry workhorse. Excellent resistance to oils, chemicals, and weathering. Ideal for general industrial sealing.
-
Silicone: The choice for extreme temperatures (high heat or deep freeze). It remains flexible and maintains its seal where other rubbers would crack.
-
Cork (Liège): A proven material for vibration damping and oil sealing, often used in automotive and heavy machinery applications.
-
Poron® Urethane: A high-performance microcellular foam. It offers excellent compression set resistance, meaning it bounces back to its original thickness even after years of being compressed, ensuring a long-term seal.
-
Bisco® Silicone Foam: The ultimate in fire and smoke resistance. Often required in the transportation sector (rail and aerospace) for its flame-retardant properties and durability.
Protection and Functionality
Our gaskets are designed to perform three primary functions:
-
Dust Blocking: Keeping fine particulates out of control panels and sensitive electronics (IP rating support).
-
Waterproofing & Sealing: Creating a watertight barrier against rain, wash-downs, or fluid transfer.
-
Vibration Damping: Using materials like Poron to isolate components, reducing noise and preventing mechanical fatigue caused by vibration.
Custom Shapes and Precision Cutting
We utilize advanced digital cutting technology (Oscillating Knife) to produce gaskets of any shape without the need for expensive physical dies.
-
Complex Geometries: We can cut intricate bolt hole patterns, thin walls, and irregular shapes directly from your CAD files (.DXF).
-
Adhesive Backing: We can laminate pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSA) to one or both sides of the gasket material, making installation on your assembly line fast and peel-and-stick simple.
