Silicone Bonding

FMI is recognized as an industry leader in the bonding of silicone rubber to various substrates for the purposes of insert molding and over molding.

Chemically and mechanically, FMI understands the key steps that can improve the quality of the chemical bond. These preparatory steps may include:

• Degreasing / Cleaning
• Abrading
• Chemical etching
• Applying a bonding agent or adhesive

A part that requires insert molding or over molding adds an extra degree of difficulty to the manufacturing process. FMI helps you ensure the mold design will positively locate, orient, and hold the insert in the exact position throughout the molding cycle.
