Foam In Place Gasket

Liquid gaskets in situ sealing foams cured in place fipfg formed in place foam gasket.

Foam in place gasket.

Rather than manually applying gaskets to seal two surfaces manufacturers can use a foam in place gasketing and sealing system to automate the process. These gaskets serve as a complete barrier and have gap filling properties. Automotive manufacturers use foam seals in parts ranging from watershield panels placed inside doors to motor covers and taillamp lenses. Dynafoam foam in place gasketing fipg technology is based on mono component polyurethane pur chemistry.

Today as the degree of automation increases liquid or thixotropic sealing foams are applied directly to the components on site using dosing equipment. Traditionally components are sealed with pre punched sponge rubber seals or by bonding sealing cords. Dynafoam products are physically foamed by injecting nitrogen n 2 and curing takes place once the product is out of the foaming system in contact simply with the humidity of ambient air or under accelerated humidity and temperature conditions. Dynafoam is robotically applied foam in place gasketing material fipg that is based on mono component polyurethane chemistry pur.

Appliance makers place these gaskets in washing machines to seal the tub water pump and water distributor. We forge our path by utilizing the foremost technological tools precision molds and expert knowledge to produce superior plastic components.
