CNC Machining for Custom Seals and Gaskets

In the world of precision engineering, the integrity of an assembly often hinges on its most unassuming components: seals and gaskets. While often massproduced from standard materials, many modern applications—from aerospace and automotive to semiconductor and medical devices—demand customengineered sealing solutions that offtheshelf products cannot provide. This is where the precision and versatility of CNC machining become a critical enabler for performance and reliability.



Unlike traditional molding or diecutting, CNC machining offers unparalleled design freedom for producing custom seals and gaskets. It allows for the creation of complex geometries, intricate crosssections, and precise internal features that are impossible with standard methods. This is particularly vital for prototypes, lowtomedium volume production runs, or when dealing with specialized materials. CNC technology can accurately machine components from a wide array of materials, including PTFE (Teflon) for exceptional chemical resistance, Viton for hightemperature stability, PEEK for superior mechanical strength, and specialized polyurethanes for abrasion resistance. This material flexibility ensures the final part is perfectly tailored to its specific operating environment, whether it involves extreme pressures, corrosive fluids, or ultrahigh vacuum conditions.

The advantages are significant. CNCmachined seals provide a perfect fit, eliminating the gaps and inconsistencies that can lead to leaks and system failure. The process delivers exceptional surface finishes, which are crucial for creating an effective sealing interface. Furthermore, for highvalue assemblies, the ability to rapidly prototype and iterate a seal design using CNC machining can drastically reduce development time and mitigate the risk of costly project delays.
