Form in Place Gasketing
What It Is
Form-in-place gasketing is a process that applies a gasket material directly onto a part. The material cures in place and creates a custom seal designed to match the shape of the component. Gasket material can be conductive or non-conductive, allowing manufacturers to choose the right solution based on the application’s sealing, electrical, or EMI shielding requirements.
Who It’s For
Manufacturers of electronic enclosures, industrial equipment, automotive components, medical devices, defense and aerospace equipment, precision machined components, and other products that require environmental sealing.
Common Reasons People Contact Us
- Need protection from dust, moisture, or contaminants.
- Want a custom gasket shape without using separate gasket parts.
- Looking to improve assembly efficiency.
- Need consistent sealing performance across production runs.
- Working on a new enclosure or product design.
Best Next Step
Send part drawings, CAD files, photos, material requirements, expected production volume, and any sealing specifications. We can review the application and discuss suitable gasketing options.

Frequently Asked Questions
Plain, direct answers to questions we hear often.
What is form-in-place gasketing?
Form-in-place gasketing is a process where a gasket material is robotically dispensed directly onto a plastic or metal component to create a custom seal for environmental protection and, in some cases, EMI shielding.
Can form-in-place gaskets be conductive?
Yes. Conductive gasket materials can help provide EMI, RFI, and ESD shielding, while non-conductive materials are commonly used for environmental sealing.
What is vacuum metallization used for?
Vacuum metallization applies a thin aluminum coating to plastic components, creating a conductive surface that can help provide EMI shielding and improved performance.
What types of products benefit from EMI shielding?
Electronic enclosures, medical devices, industrial controls, aerospace components and communication equipment commonly require EMI shielding to protect sensitive electronics.
Can you work with plastic enclosures?
Yes. Many VTI solutions are designed specifically for plastic housings and enclosures that require shielding, sealing, or specialized coatings.
Do you provide assistance during product development?
Yes. Early design assistance can help identify the most effective shielding, sealing, and coating solutions before production begins.
Do you work with both prototype and production volumes?
Yes. We support projects ranging from early-stage product development and testing to full-scale manufacturing programs, depending on application requirements.
What industries commonly use your services?
Our solutions are commonly used in medical, aerospace, defense, telecommunications, industrial electronics, and other manufacturing industries.
