Product catalog summary
Mould Seals Overview
This document provides detailed specifications for various mould seals used in the mould-making process, particularly for Resin Transfer Moulding (RTM) applications. The seals are designed to accommodate different pressure levels and mould configurations.

Seal Types and Specifications
  • Mould Seal 10 x 5 with Radius (RD-20-0009): Designed for small RTM applications where standard 'D' seals are not suitable.
  • D Section Mould Seal - Green (RD-20-0011): A harder, more resilient version for high-pressure RTM applications.
  • Lip Section Mould Seal - Blue (RD-20-0012): Used as an outer vacuum seal in 'Light RTM' moulds.
  • D Section Mould Seal – White Inflatable (RD-20-0010): Inflatable seal for reducing seal drag in steep flange moulds, controlled by unit XE-0400.
  • Foam Silicon Groove Profile (RD-20-0017): Provides the correct groove for fitting lip section mould seals, easily adaptable to various radii.
  • Small Lip Section Mould Seal - Blue (RD-20-0014): A smaller version of the standard lip seal for applications requiring small bend radii.
  • Resin Runner Profile (RD-20-0016): Silicon section for correct resin-runner detail in VRTM moulds.
  • D Section Mould Seal – Blue (RD-20-0013): Standard seal for most Light RTM/RTM tooling, also used during mould construction.

Additional Notes
All specifications are subject to change without notice. The document emphasizes the flexibility and adaptability of the seals to meet various moulding requirements.

Mould Seals-1

Mould Seals Mould Seals A comprehensive range of mould seals and ‘formers’ used in the mould-making process. The D section resin seal is available in three versions with varying levels of compressibility. This allows the majority of moulds to be built with a standard seal groove but still enables some flexibility in seal specification. Mould Seal 10 x 5 with Radius (12.5mm overall height) (RD-20-0009) Seal for use with small RTM applications– where standard ‘D’ seal is not applicable. D Section Mould Seal– White Inflatable (RD-20-0010) D section mould seal for use as a resin seal in RTM or ‘Light RTM’ moulds, to reduce seal drag when closing the mould where flanges are too steep for conventional seals. The seal is inflated or collapsed under vacuum using seal control unit XE-0400. D Section Mould Seal - Green (RD-20-0011) Harder more resilient version of standard D seal for use in high-pressure RTM applications. Lip Section Mould Seal - Blue (RD-20-0012) ‘Lip’ section vacuum seal for use as an outer vacuum seal in ‘Light RTM’ moulds.

Mould Seals (continued) D Section Mould seal – Blue (RD-20-0013) Standard D section mould seal for use as a resin seal in the majority of Light RTM / RTM tooling. Note: this seal is also used during the mould construction to generate the correct seal groove) Small Lip Section Mould Seal - Blue (RD-20-0014) Similar section to standard Lip section seal RD-20-0012, but approx half size. Can be used for vacuum applications where small bend radii are required. Also used to retain mould-insert blocks under vacuum. Resin Runner Profile (RD-20-0016) Silicon section to provide correct resin-runner detail,...
