Solid alternative to liquid epoxy for high-volume, precision sealing
 

Solid alternative to liquid epoxy for high-volume, precision sealing

Multi-Seals Inc. offers a solid alternative to liquid epoxy for high-volume, precision sealing.  

Uni-form epoxy preforms are pre-shaped, one-part resins that are solid at room temperature. When heated, Uni-forms melt and cure, forming a consistent seal that protects components from dust, moisture, oil, flux, solvents, conformal coatings, and other contaminants. 

Close tolerances on preform dimensions, consistent pre-mixed ratios of resin to catalyst, and consistent viscosity from beginning to end of batch ensure uniform, high-quality results. 

Uni-forms eliminate seal variations caused by operator technique or epoxy pot life. Costly clean-up procedures are also avoided. To accommodate diverse applications, Uni-forms are available in several epoxy formulations and a wide range of configurations, with inside diameters as small as .010-in (0.25mm) and outside diameters as large as .720-in (18.3 mm). 

Preforms can be dispensed as rapidly as 200 to 600 parts per minute with little or no operator training.
