4 Gasket Materials for Mid-Range Temperature Sealing

Die-cut gaskets can play a critical role in the overall performance and safety of a part or product. They can endure harsh environments and provide long-lasting, tight seals against air, moisture,

Preventing Gasket Failure Part 3: Environment

Today, manufacturers can choose from a wide range of gasket materials that can endure a combination of environmental conditions. This post highlights five of the most common environmental requirements and some of the materials best suited to address them.

Spotlight on Silicone: Featuring BISCO ® Silicone Success Stories

Today’s post uses real-life stories to demonstrate the benefits of die cut silicone -- or, more specifically, the benefits of one of the more popular families of silicone rubber products: BISCO ® Silicone.

FDA USP VI Silicones for Medical Devices

FDA USP VI silicones meet strict standards for cleanliness and purity. JBC Technologies can source, convert, and die cut these elastomers for medical devices. Medical silicones that are platinum-cured have low levels of extractables, VOAs and other chemicals that can lead into the compound.

Medical Silicones and USP VI Biological Reactivity Tests, In Vivo

Medical silicones that pass USP VI Biological Reactivity Tests, In Vivo are safe for direct and indirect patient contact. JBC Technologies can source, convert, and die cut these specialty silicones for medical devices.

Thermal Interface Materials (TIMs): Four Types of Die Cut Products

Thermal interface materials (TIMs) create a thermal path from a heat-generating component to a heat sink, a device that dissipates heat. With die cutting, engineers can choose graphite gaskets, thermal pads and film, thermal tape, and gap fillers. Learn how these die cut products compare.
