Die Cut Gaskets
Steel Rule Die Cut gaskets are an example of one of the most common forms of die cutting. When a steel rule die is created, it is bent and formed to customer specifications for cutting and stamping out custom parts and components. We start out with a sheet of steel that is bent and formed into a custom shape to match our customer’s dimensional requirements.
The steel rule dies are then used on our programmable, traveling head press, to “punch out” different shapes from non-metallic materials. Food Grade Gaskets, Rubber Gaskets, Paper Gaskets, Fiber Gaskets, Sponge Rubber Gaskets, Cork and Cork Rubber gaskets are part of the endless list of materials that can be converted by die cutting.
To create a Rotary Die Cut Gasket we use a cylindrical die on a rotary press to cut gaskets. As the die rotates, a large sheet of material is fed into the press at the same speed as the rotation. As the die makes contact with the material, it creases, perforates or cuts out the custom shape from the sheet of material.

diecutgaskets.jpgLathe Cut Gaskets
Are manufactured from a tube of rubber by inserting a mandrel into the tube and cutting the finished dimensions with a knife while the mandrel is being turned at high speed in a lathe type machine.
Lathe cut gaskets offer maximum cost-performance benefits in many applications and is usually the best choice where a static seal is needed. Its square or rectangular cross-section provides a wider sealing surface and superior resistance to compression set than molded O-rings. Lathe cut gaskets are typically less expensive than molded alternatives and is a great choice for high volume gaskets. Lathe cutting also is good when beveled edge gaskets or tight tolerance gaskets are required. The lathe cutting process is also a good choice when large OD gaskets or small ID gaskets are required. Filter gaskets and food grade gaskets can also be produced using this method.

lathe-cut.jpgVulcanized Gaskets
Uses the hot splicing/vulcanizing process to chemically bond two ends of a rubber extrusion together. By creating an endless seal, the gasket is more impermeable to the elements. Monroe Seals can vulcanize extruded rubber into circles, squares, and a variety of other shapes.
From simple spliced O-rings, vulcanized window gaskets and vulcanized frame gaskets, to spliced seals and vulcanized corners, we can manufacture the right endless gasket for your requirements.
There are a number of vulcanized splice types. Round cord or irregular profiles may be vulcanized to endless gaskets. Applications such as window frame gaskets, door gaskets, filter housing gaskets and lid gaskets. The uses are as unlimited as your imagination will allow. See Vulcanized Splice Types for more information.

frame-gaskets.jpgKiss Cut Gaskets
Is the process in which pressure sensitive adhesive backed material is partially, but not completely cut through. This method cuts through the actual gasket material and adhesive to the liner on the back.
By cutting the gasket in this method, the gasket retains its pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) backing and liner allowing for a “peel and stick” application.

no-image.jpgLaser Cut Gaskets
Utilizes a high-powered laser to cut out shapes on sheets on material. A computer-aided design (CAD) program moves the laser on a path to cut out the desired shape. This method is used for materials that are harder to cut using traditional die cutting methods.
The cut provided by the laser is cleaner and more precise, allowing for tighter tolerances on your finished gasket.

no-image.jpgWater Jet Cut Gaskets
Is the process of high pressure water being forced through a small nozzle producing an extremely clean and precise cut. An advantage of water jet cutting is that it allows parts to be tightly nested maximizing yields.
Water jet technology offers extremely accurate cuts of complex and intricate parts, efficient use of materials and less compression distortion.
Another benefit of water jet cutting is that it is an excellent method for producing prototype and test parts or short production runs. It is also a very clean process, with water as the only byproduct.
