Versatile and reusable silicone masking products
Samco's new reusable silicone masking products include bungs, caps and pull plugs, suitable for applications in painting, powder coating, metal finishing and enamelling
Sizes range from 10mm to 150mm outside diameter, with colour-coded stripes for ease of identification.
They are designed to be tight-fitting and protect the bore at all stages of finishing, for instance preventing the ingress of 'E' coat solutions and the deposition of powder or paint onto the machined surface.
The tube suits application temperatures up to 250oC and can be reused many times.
It can be supplied in 'kit' form with the correct number and sizes to fit individual parts.
Samco also offers a custom service, low-cost tooling and can provide individual samples or high volume runs.
