A form-in-place gasket is created by dispensing a liquid gasket onto a metal or plastic part before assembly. Because it is dispensed as a liquid, it fits precisely to the part’s form, regardless of housing imperfections. This results in a reliable seal and durable finished product.
Everything you ever wanted to know about form-in-place gaskets (and probably more!) in one convenient guide. Read everything right on page (no form fill required), or get a PDF to keep!
Read the GuideOur engineering team is regularly asked for guidance in determining if an extrusion or a form-in-place (FIP) gasket is a better fit for a particular design.
In this post, we take a look at some of the most common industries that put robotically dispensed FIP gaskets to use.
With so many variables in play, picking a thermal pad versus a form-in-place solution can be complex. This article provides guidance on some of the variables to consider.
If you are the engineer charged with solving this design challenge, then Form-In-Place Gaskets just might provide the answer you seek.
Start with the basics! Learn what a form-in-place gasket is, what it’s used for, and the answers to some frequently asked questions about these gaskets.
This article provides an overview of six key tips from our engineering team when designing an FIP gasket for EMI shielding applications.

In many cases, FIP gaskets are dispensed on metal housing. Get design guidance for your metal housing as well.
Many of our Defense partners are challenging the boundaries of technology daily. As technology advances, electronics and devices are shrinking in size to accommodate more complex project designs–simply put, they require more technology in less space. It pays to have a manufacturing part who is willing to push the boundaries.
