Gaskets

In addition to custom enclosures, parts, and panels, ProtoSpace Mfg manufactures custom cut gaskets in 2-3 days, with no minimum order.

You can order custom cut gaskets in whatever quantity you require as a standalone order, or as part of an enclosure assembly.

Material Considerations:

• Material must meet a minimum rigidity for precision cutting. We recommend staying within a minimum durometer of 30A and a maximum durometer of 70a. We can use softer materials (i.e. a lower durometer), but cutting accuracy may be sacrificed. (Min. durometer 30A - Max. durometer 70a) - (Softer materials can be cut, but accuracy may be lost)
• Material thicknesses we can accommodate between 1/4" to 1/64". We stock gasket materials that range between 1/8" and 1/16" in thickness.
• Overall minimum diameter for a gasket is more than 1.25".
• Smallest hole diameter is 0.060". Small holes in thicker material will have more taper.
• The tangent of any cutout shopd have at least 0.1" between the cutout itself and the nearest cutout or the edge of the part.

Considerations for Using a Photo Instead of a CAD File when Ordering a Gasket:

• Not 100% accurate process.
• Tolerance may vary depending on the quality of the picture provided.
• Your image should be at least 5 megapixels.
• Images are best used for smaller gaskets to avoid angle distortion.
• For gaskets measuring 12”x12” or smaller, we require one ‘straight on’ photo.
• For gaskets measuring larger than 12”x 12”, we require a photo for every square foot.
• You must supply at least two accurate dimensions that can be transferred on to the image. The accuracy of these dimensions will affect the accuracy of the produced gasket.

Tolerances:

Our CNC router tolerance for cutting gaskets is +/-.030" (0.762mm).

Additional Information:

• Available in variety of stocked materials
• No minimum order requirements
• Cut by CNC knife process
• RoHS compliant

Materials:

• Polyurethane/Neoprene/Vinyl/Buna-N Foam
• Neoprene Rubber

Custom cut gaskets are cut from sheets up to 4' x 8'.

Non-Stock Requests:

Need a gasket made from material we don't currently stock? We are happy to source non-stocked materials for additional lead time and cost. Contact us to discuss your options.
