FDA Approved Urethane Washers – FDA Urethane Washers

FDA approved urethane washers can be cast in any durometer from soft to hard as plastic for many different applications including the food processing industry to isolate food contact or to act as a seal. FDA approved urethane washers will also dampen vibration and shock. Polyurethane is a great choice because of its ability to tailor the material to any specification. Urethane parts commonly provide longer service life when compared to plastics and rubber with lower noise abatement properties when compared to metals. FDA approved urethane washers for dry food applications include high tensile strength, outstanding abrasion resistance and excellent load bearing performance.

Plan Tech can also produce cast urethane parts that are metal detectable for FDA food processors making polyurethane ideal in production lines. FDA approved urethane washers are non-corrosive, non-marking, chemical resistant and can withstand continued service under some of the most demanding conditions. The FDA Urethane washers have a temperature range from -20 to 170°F. With our state of the art urethane manufacturing facility, we are able to incorporate metal detectable additives in polyurethane at any percent with our high-speed mixing process. The FDA approved additives can be used with existing x-ray and metal detectors, by incorporating this FDA approved additive if the part ever broke it could be easily detected by a metal detector. This makes for an effective way to prevent product contamination in the food industry.

Plan Tech is a leading provider of FDA-approved urethane components for food manufacturers across North America. We are able to cast custom FDA approved urethane parts for the most stringent of applications. Improving detectability is critical to prevent a major contamination which will save time, effort and money before the finished product. This is a major improvement in both equipment and the ability to detect a problem before it reaches the final product. The ability to blend the product allows us to fine tune how much of the FDA approved additive is blended into the parts to ensure the end product will have all the physical properties required for the application.
