What Plastisol Coating Can Do for Your Product

Plastisol coatings are one of the easiest, most cost-effective ways to improve a great product or component, and nearly any industry can benefit from this versatile, durable coating. 

What Is Plastisol?

A vinyl-based coating, you'll recognize plastisol's unique, rubbery texture, if you've ever held a tool handle that had a soft coating that was easy to grip. It combines the vinyl base with an elasticizing additive so it stays stretchy. 

Plastisol for Vibration & Noise Reduction

Like a thin, rubbery cushion, plastisol makes an excellent material to limit rattles, bangs, and other noises from parts or equipment banging together, such as in automotive applications. It is also effective at reducing the impact of vibrations, improving worker comfort and the longevity of parts and equipment.

Plastisol Makes Things More Comfortable

Whether it's cushioning hands from repeated use of tools, sports equipment, or controls, insulating against cold or smoothing over rough or sharp edges, plastisol can make tasks easier on the hands. 

Plastisol Insulates Well

From bus bars to high-voltage tools and equipment, the excellent insulator plastisol and the electrical industry are natural partners.

Superior Plastisol Protection

Moisture and chemical exposure can be two of metal's worst enemies, particularly in the extreme conditions aerospace and military equipment must endure. A durable plastisol coating can protect vital parts from corrosion, weathering, and oxidation. Plastisol's elastic qualities help it protect coated parts from impacts, abrasion, and other damage which could compromise their performance.

Plastisol Is Attractive

Plastisol can be formulated in nearly any color, with special effects such as metallic or glitter looks, and additives can add to its already powerful functionality. It's a great way to combine improved performance with brand colors or color coding.
