Gaskets
Manufacturer of Gaskets and Bespoke Gasket Cutting
When you are good at something, customers tend to ask whether you can offer additional services. Due to the great success of supplying laser-cut thin metal parts, we were asked to supply their non-metal cut parts. It was therefore inevitable for Hollinbrow to add a Swing Arm Cutting to their in-house production.
Die cutting is a term used to many types of cutting process but in our sphere of application and activity it applies mainly to the cutting out of shapes from soft or semi-rigid materials in single or multiple layers. The process itself is, in fact, very simple but the machinery to perform the process has become increasingly sophisticated.
Range of Application
- Electronic components – flexible PCBs touch pads, button covers, legend plates
- Felt strips, washers, gaskets
- Filters for machinery, breathing apparatus and the medical industry
- Foam and sponge – gaskets, packaging, consumer products
- Gaskets, seals, washers in plastic, cork, rubber, paper, felt, PTFE, graphite and more
- Insulation materials
- Leather Medical products – filters, dressings, foot care products, orthopaedic footwear
- Packaging – foam, inserts, card, promotional products, blister packs
- Paper, card – filters, labels
- Plastics – PVC binders, lampshades, stationery products, gifts, novelties, gaskets
- Rubber – gaskets, seals, washers
Precision Gaskets & Custom Gasket Manufacturing
Gaskets are critical sealing components used across industrial applications to prevent leakage, maintain pressure, and ensure reliable performance in mechanical assemblies. At Hollinbrow Precision Products, we manufacture custom gaskets using advanced laser cutting and die cutting technologies, delivering precision-engineered sealing solutions for demanding industrial environments.
Our gasket manufacturing capabilities combine decades of precision cutting expertise with state-of-the-art equipment to produce gaskets across a comprehensive range of materials and specifications. Whether you require rubber gaskets, PTFE gaskets, cork gaskets, felt gaskets, graphite gaskets, or specialised sealing materials, we deliver custom-cut gaskets manufactured to your exact requirements with exceptional tolerances.
Comprehensive Gasket Materials
We manufacture gaskets from an extensive selection of materials to suit diverse industrial applications and operating conditions:
Rubber Gaskets – Available in various elastomer compounds including neoprene, nitrile, EPDM, silicone, and Viton, offering excellent sealing properties, chemical resistance, and temperature tolerance for fluid and gas sealing applications.
PTFE Gaskets – Engineered from polytetrafluoroethylene for exceptional chemical resistance, high-temperature performance, and low-friction properties, ideal for aggressive chemical environments and food-grade applications.
Cork Gaskets – Natural and composite cork materials providing excellent compressibility, vibration damping, and sealing characteristics for automotive, industrial machinery, and general engineering applications.
Felt Gaskets – Manufactured from wool or synthetic felts for applications requiring cushioning, dust sealing, fluid retention, and vibration absorption in machinery and equipment.
Graphite Gaskets – High-performance graphite materials offering superior temperature resistance, chemical compatibility, and sealing reliability for extreme operating conditions including high-pressure steam, exhaust systems, and industrial processing equipment.
Our gasket materials are selected based on your specific application requirements including temperature range, chemical exposure, pressure ratings, and environmental conditions, ensuring optimal sealing performance and longevity.
Advanced Gasket Cutting Technologies
Hollinbrow employs both laser cutting and die cutting technologies to manufacture precision gaskets with tight tolerances:
Laser Cut Gaskets – Our advanced laser cutting systems deliver exceptional precision for complex gasket profiles, intricate shapes, and tight tolerances.
Laser cutting provides clean edges, minimal material waste, and rapid turnaround for both prototype and production quantities. This technology is particularly suited for gaskets requiring precise dimensional accuracy and complex geometries.
Die Cut Gaskets – Our swing arm die cutting equipment excels at cutting soft and semi-rigid gasket materials in single or multiple layers. Die cutting enables efficient production of gaskets in medium to high volumes whilst maintaining consistent quality and dimensional accuracy. This process is ideal for standard gasket shapes and production runs requiring cost-effective manufacturing.
Custom Gasket Solutions
Every gasket application presents unique sealing challenges. Our custom gasket manufacturing service addresses these requirements through:
Bespoke Gasket Design – We work from your technical drawings, specifications, or samples to manufacture gaskets precisely matching your dimensional and performance requirements.
Washer Gaskets – Specialised washer-style gaskets combining sealing and spacing functions, available in various materials and thicknesses to suit bolted joint applications.
Multi-Layer Gaskets – Laminated gasket constructions combining different materials to achieve specific sealing, thermal, or mechanical properties.
Prototype to Production – From single prototype gaskets for testing and development through to volume production runs, we support your gasket requirements at every stage.
Quality-Certified Gasket Manufacturing
As an AS9100 Rev D certified manufacturer, Hollinbrow maintains rigorous quality standards throughout our gasket manufacturing processes. Every gasket is produced under controlled conditions with dimensional inspection and quality verification, ensuring conformance to your specifications.
