Custom Copper
Gaskets Manufacturing
Gaskets are one of the most common parts required for many different applications and industries. At FedTech, we have the production capabilities needed to create custom gaskets that fit your specific requirements.
The Benefits of Copper in Custom Gaskets
A gasket, regardless of its application, must withstand high levels of pressure and wear. Although steel, aluminum and other hard metals might seem best for most applications, copper has unique properties that make it a great option. Copper is a soft red metal which allows the gasket to fully conform to a sealing surface, reducing excess movement.
Due to its softness and malleability, it can be manufactured into any form, no matter how complex. It offers better electrical conductivity than most materials and continues to resist corrosion over long periods of time.
How Are Custom Copper Gaskets Made?
At FedTech, we use abrasive waterjet cutting to manufacture your custom gaskets. Abrasive waterjet cutting works best for materials including copper, brass, stainless and aluminum. Using a high-velocity, coherent stream of water mixed with abrasive, we custom cut your gasket to fit your specifications.
Abrasive waterjet cutting can cut, pierce or drill holes as small as .030” in diameter, helping us create precise and accurate finished products.
Copper Gasket Applications
Many different applications spanning a wide range of industries may include copper gaskets in their design. Some of the most common applications include:
- Motors and machinery used in automobiles and motorcycles
- Mechanical parts of farm equipment and heavy machinery
- Generators and air compressors
- Appliances such as refrigerators and air conditioners
- Aerospace and defense machinery
- Electronic devices
