IndustryApplication
Aerospace

Porous bleeder material used as a release cloth in vacuum molding

Release tape used in vacuum molding

Aircraft wire harness/cable wrap for electrical insulation/protection

Release Fabric

Apparel

Conveyor belts used on fusing machines to bond woven and non-woven fabrics

Sewing machine and cutting table covers for ease in fabric handling

Automotive

Belts carrying extruded plastic, rubber or foam auto parts through curing ovens.

Release material for lamination of scuff boards and aerodynamic panel skirts for trucks

Used in lamination process of head liners

Carpet/Flooring

Conveyor belts to convey uncured synthetic rubber PVC backing and woven fiber overlay through a curing chamber where materials are bonded.

Composites

Mold release tapes provide a super-smooth finished surface, eliminate the need for waxes and chemical cleaners, can be gel coated and reduce prep time, finish work and clean-up



Bleeder cloth

Expansion Joints

Designed to provide stress relief, absorb thermal expansion and shock, adjust for minor misalignments in ductwork and isolate mechanical vibrations

Food Processing

Baking tray liners

Belts for precooking steak, chicken, bacon, eggs and other food items such as pizza crust and flour tortillas

Chute and table liners for sticky ingredients

Insulation Jackets

PTFE coated fabric controls heat gain and loss due to thermal or chemical exposure for gas and steam turbines, heaters, control valves and other industrial applications

Lamination

Release sheets for thin/flexible solar cell fabrication

Release surface, hold wafers in place during autoclave processing

Packaging

Tapes for thermal transfer of poly films on impulse sealers/L-sealing bars, form fill & seal bagging machines

Conveyor belts for shrink wrap tunnels


Two-ply belts for sealing poly-bags with no increased thickness in splice area

Curtains for shrink wrap ovens

Paper

Roll covering to eliminate fiber picking on drying rolls

Plastics

Belting to transport extruded parts through cooling chambers

Conveyor belts for casting polyurethane rubber

Release sheets used for laminating and molding equipment

PVC Welding

Covers metal platen as a release surface during vinyl welding

Rubber Processing

Belts carrying rubber through curing ovens

 

Screen Printing

Belts for automated dryer systems conveying screen printed items

Self-Lubricating Bearing Materials

Provides a self-lubricating, durable, low maintenance and cost effective alternative to plastic bearing materials

Solar Panel Lamination  Belts use in the lamination process of rigid and flexible photovoltaic (PV) modules
Textile

Textile drying conveying synthetic yarns through curing ovens, transporting printed textiles through drying ovens as well as carrying woven, non-woven and knitted fabrics through texturizing ovens.

Thermal Spray

Silicone rubber/fiberglass tapes for masking during grit blasting, flame and plasma spray applications. Tape resist lifting and fraying and release cleaning with out adhesive residue.
