Sealinfo: Prototyping Capability and Tooling Minimization

send page to printer or pdf

Select-a-Seal® Prototyping Capability

Our unique, cost-effective manufacturing process allows for fast turn-around of prototype parts and does not require expensive tooling like alternative gasket technologies. From the time the CAD files of the mating flanges are received at our prototyping facility, we can design a gasket, cut sheets, apply the edge, and inspect the prototype - all within ten days.

Prototype charges apply - Standard service is available at a discounted fee.

Tooling Minimization

The reduced tooling requirements easily accommodate design changes, thereby eliminating the 8 to 18 week lead-time necessary for tooling of injection molded parts.

Typical Production Tooling Costs		Design Freeze Lead Times
Select-a-Seal	$5,000	Select-a-Seal	10 days
Rubber-coated Metal	$40,000	Rubber-coated Metal	60 days
Rubber-edged Metal	$100,000	Rubber-edged Metal	120 days
