Dip coating is a common, affordable, efficient, and effective method for producing a number of plastic parts and components. Small plastic parts like bottle caps and plastic plugs, sports equipment, gloves, plastic closures, plastic bags, medical equipment, and grips for handles are just some of the many products produced using plastisol dip coating. If you are on the fence as to whether or not this technique is right for your workpiece, here are some of the key advantages and applications for plastisol dip coating.
Durability and Resistance
As with many plastic coated products, one of the key advantages to using plastisol dip coating is the added protection for your products. This material will protect metals from rust and corrosion, along with abrasion, scratching, and even UV rays. Since this material is exceptionally durable and acts as the first line of defense for your product, it will also increase the products longevity and performance.
Insulates Surface
Beyond just protecting the surface from physical damage, plastisol coating provides great resistance and insulation from extreme heat, cold, and electrical currents. This allows for improved safety protections, along with improvements to the comfort and usability of the product in extreme environments. For obvious reasons, these characteristics make dip coating a popular choice for products like construction equipment, playground sets, and a number of outdoors accessories. Add in the corrosion and rust protection mentioned above, and you have the perfect protective layer for any outdoor product.
Produced Quickly, To Any Scale
Another key advantage to seeking out plastisol dip coating services is the efficiency, affordability, and production scale potential. Whether you require a thousands units produced every day, or a single one-off prototype to test a new design- this method can work for you. With low associated costs, this is a popular method for producing quality, precision plastic protects quickly.
