EPDM and Silicone Rubber Masking Plugs and Caps Are Hot Items at StockCap

When a finishing process heats up, StockCap can respond to all the masking needs to protect ports, threads and more. EPDM and silicone rubber masking options are used in powder coating and e-coating finishing processes, while EPDM is a great chemical resistant material for plating operations. Both EPDM and silicone rubber materials are flexible and provide tight fitting seals on threads, fittings and tubing.

EPDM rubber masking caps and plugs tolerate temperatures up to 475°F (246°C), while silicone rubber masking products will withstand temperatures up to 600°F (316°C). EPDM rubber masking products offer superior chemical resistance and can be used more than once. Silicone rubber masking caps and plugs will not contaminate paint lines and will sustain repeated uses.
