Felt, wool and synthetic felt cutting dies

Felt cutting dies:
wool and synthetic felt

Felt is a similar die job to a gasket, but its use is different: it is cut for jobs like oiling, insulation and vibration. The density, thickness of the felt and a hardened edge directly decide the result.

Where this die fits

A felt cutting die is prepared with similar logic to a gasket cutting die, but the material is felt and the use is different. Oil felt, insulation washers, vibration and sound-damping pads, sealing spacers and filter/decorative felt are made with this die.

The outer shape, inner hole and edge cleanliness can be checked one by one from a drawing, sample or measured photo.

  • Oil felt and bearing seats
  • Insulation and isolation washers
  • Vibration/sound-damping pads
  • Sealing and filter felt

What we check before production

The fibrous structure of felt can fray when cut and behaves differently by density. So weight, thickness and the edge are read together.

  • Felt weight, thickness and density
  • Hardened edge and base
  • Adhesive (3M) felt peel
  • Hole center and edge cleanliness

Quote information

Felt type and thickness are the main quote inputs. If no technical drawing exists, a good sample can be redrawn.

Common questions

1

Which felts can be cut?

Wool felt, synthetic felt and adhesive felt can be cut. The edge is selected according to the thickness and density of the felt.

2

How is it different from a gasket die?

The job looks similar but felt behaves differently from rubber: its fibrous structure compresses and can fray when cut. So the edge and base are planned separately for felt.

3

Can adhesive felt be cut?

Yes. With adhesive (3M) felt, liner peel and adhesive squeeze-out are checked before production.
