Custom Carbon and Graphite Components Engineered for Your Application
When standard components don’t meet design or performance requirements, custom carbon and graphite parts become necessary. Applications with unique geometry, load, temperature, environment, or duty cycle demand components built to perform reliably where off-the-shelf solutions fall short.
Unique Benefits of Custom Carbon Graphite Parts
Proprietary Carbon Graphite Grades
Use proprietary carbon graphite grades developed and controlled in-house for consistent material performance.
Customized Grades for Your Application
Apply carbon graphite grades customized to your specific application and operating requirements.
Skilled Product Development Team & Engineers
Work with experienced engineers who support material selection and design throughout development.
Wide Range of Machining / Finishing Capabilities
Produce finished components using a wide range of CNC machining and finishing processes to meet end-use requirements.
Advanced Software and Testing

Carbon Graphite Mechanical Seal Types
Rotating equipment often requires a dynamic mechanical seal to create a seal between a rotating shaft and a stationary body and prevent the escape of process fluid(s) including liquid and/or gas. They can also be used in mixer seals to prevent fugitive ambient particulates from entering a contained vessel being being mixed such as a pharmaceutical reaction…
Why Bearings Fail and How to Prevent It
All bearings have a fixed life expectancy. Some are replaced because of normal wear or spalling, and others need replacing because of premature wear or failure. An unexpected failure can cause damage to equipment, downtime, costly replacement, and possibly even injury. And, even before they fail, the premature wear is likely to have effects on performance …
Carbon Graphite Conductivity & Expansion
When deciding on the materials for carbon graphite components or parts, it all starts with a thorough review of the application which includes the components’ form/function/fit and property identifying the “must haves” and the “nice to haves” and melding these with a design for manufacturability. There are three important physical characteristics …
