New Post-moulding service: FIPFG sealing (Form InPlaceFoamGasket)

Our constant commitment in identifying solutions and services for our customers allow us to offer you the possibility to add two-component polyurethane foam gaskets to the plastic components moulded by Csplast

What it is

Through the FIPFG (Form In Place Foam Gasket) process, liquid polyurethane is applied on the plastic component, it expands and totally adheres, shaping the desired gasket. In this way your item will be provided with an hermetic gasket, which will keep its shape over time. 

This process makes possible to produce gaskets in an automated way, without further labor interventions, assembly or maintenance.

Advantages

  • Also  applicable to complex geometries or to discontinuous sections of thickness;
  • Excellent  sealing results;

  • Possibility of UL approval;
  • Weather and aging resistant;
  • No water absorption
