FDA Urethane Mold and Pour Video on YouTube

Please have a look at a YouTube video of an FDA part from beginning to end. This video covers engineering, machining, pouring and inspecting a custom crush wheel for the food industry. Many parts that are to be used in the food industry can be covered with our special FDA food grade urethane. The urethane provides excellent abrasion resistance, longer lasting parts and easier surfaces to clean off. If you have further questions feel free to Contact Us
