Molding Processes
ZāGO Manufacturing Company is committed
to superior craftsmanship in making the
best products available with all
manufacturing done in the U.S.A.
To produce our industry-leading line of
sealing switch boots, we begin by
purchasing raw silicone rubber ZZR 765
Class 3A in a natural/clear color or
off-white. This rubber is thoroughly
tested by our quality control department
and then stored in a low temperature
environment. When an order is received,
our production team selects the rubber
that matches the customer’s
specifications. Our technicians then
re-compound the rubber into its final
stage by adding coloring or other final
additives as requested. The material is
then fed through a rubber mill mixing
machine that combines all the
ingredients from the “recipe” to achieve
a final elastomer. When the batch is
finished, it is assigned a lot number
and a date to ensure proper shelf life.
We then slice the rubber to the required
weight and thickness and prepare to mold
the part utilizing Wabash compression or
transfer molding process machines.
ZāGO is committed to investing in
the future
of manufacturing in America.
