Custom dip molding is done by dipping a mold into plastisol. The custom mold is first created in Harman's manufacturing plant, then preheated to prepare for dipping. The mold is dipped several times, heat cured, then cooled to harden. The plastic coating is then taken off the mold, revealing the finished plastic product. Finishing opearations, such as cutting, punching, and printing can now be done to the plastic caps, plastic plugs, or plastic grips. Harman prides itself in completing this custom dip molding process in an efficient manner due to quick changeover and tooling flexibility.
