Used & Rebuilt Annular Foam Dies

We have a rotating stock of used annular dies, originally manu- factured by Sencorp Systems, Inc., Sentinel Products Corp., Gloucester Engineering (Battenfeld) and other suppliers. If we do not have the specific item in stock, we will perform a global search for you. We provide the dies “as is” or we will rebuild to your requirements.
 

Polystyrene Foam Air Rings

FOAMTEK, LLC provides internal and external air rings for the “skinning” of polystyrene foam sheet. Our air rings are constructed from aluminum. They are custom designed to fit the appropriate die lip and die.
 

Polyethylene Foam Flattening Rings

Flattening rings assist in “ironing” polyethylene foam sheet to be flat. They are typically used for 0.5 inch (12 mm) thick polyethylene foam sheet but can also be used for thinner gauges. Flattening rings are manufactured from aluminum stock and are Teflon coated.
