With our engineering insight into rubber molding, we engage with product development teams to offer design recommendations and guidance on material selection and molding methods. We maintain a large inventory of parts in our North Carolina plant and provide an option of overseas sourcing from trusted suppliers throughout the world that we have worked with for decades.
Using methods such as compression molding, transfer molding, injection molding, and cast molding, we supply high-quality parts in various shapes, sizes, and materials. Along with caps, covers, gaskets, seals, and insulators, some examples of products we offer include seals, stoppers, and molded shapes used in industrial machinery and electronics. Our parts are molded to exact customer specifications and RMA commercial tolerances as standard; tighter tolerances can be obtained upon request. Our robust quality assurance also includes physical and analytical testing to ASTM standards.
We supply custom molded products using rubber compounds in durometers from 30 to 90 Shore A and various chemical resistance properties. Some examples include SBR, Neoprene, nitrile, EPDM, silicone, natural rubber, Viton, and urethane. We also offer the option of custom compounding.
Our molding services are certified to ISO 9001:2015 standards, and our products exhibit a very high caliber of quality. We take products from the prototype stage to low or volume production levels. We serve customers in a diversity of industries, such as agricultural, appliance, automotive, HVAC, electronics, oil & gas, transportation, marine, and general industrial, among others.

Inside each of our two North Carolina plants, we have a lineup of presses suitable for high volume production. These presses produce die cut shapes in sizes measuring up to 76” x 51”, and customers can choose from an enormous range of non-metallic material choices. We also have digital equipment for cutting shapes directly from CAD files, making this technology suitable for prototypes and low volumes. Our capabilities also include kiss cutting, where we supply adhesive-backed parts on a roll, sheet or with a tab for easy integration into automated or manual assembly operations. For die cuts provided on rolls, we can slit them into various widths and diameters.
Our modern die cutting processes are adaptable to an enormous range of materials, including solid rubber and sponge rubber, polyurethane, technical papers, nonwoven materials, and many others. From automotive, acoustical, and thermal insulation to appliance parts, gaskets, washers, pads, and panels, we supply all types of die cut products.
We manufacture a range of die cut products in our two North Carolina facilities, with the security of being able to manufacture most products in either location. Our die cutting services are fast, reliable, and certified to ISO 9001:2015 standards. For more information about our die cutting capabilities or to request a quote, contact us directly.
