Have a question about our seals? We have the answer. Check out these FAQs and give us a call today for more information!

  • How do you determine your pricing?

    We look at several factors when pricing your job—the size and number of parts, how porous they are, and what type of material we're working with. According to Foundry Management & Technology, localized impregnation is an efficient and inexpensive method for impregnating porosity in metal castings, reducing sealant usage by >90% and removing the need for water washing, hot water curing, and all the associated chemical and energy costs, trade effluent, and VOC emissions. Contact our team at A B Seals Inc with details about your metal casting impregnation project.

  • How long does the process take?

    We typically get orders processed and ready by the next business day. For larger batches or more complex parts, it might take a bit longer. Let us know what you're working with, and we can give you a more specific timeframe for your metal casting impregnation project.

  • Can you ship to my location?

    Yes, we ship products treated with our metal casting sealers to anywhere in the continental United States.

  • Do you stand behind your work?

    Absolutely! We offer a satisfaction guarantee on all our metal casting impregnation services.

  • Is your sealant safe to use?

    Yes, our metal casting sealers are safe! Our Moguloid Sealant is completely non-toxic and has no odor, making it safe for a wide range of applications, even those with strict safety requirements.

  • Does your Moguloid Sealant shrink like resin does?

    No, unlike typical resins, our metal casting sealer doesn't shrink during the curing process. This means your parts maintain their exact dimensions, and the seal stays intact.

  • How much heat can the sealant handle?

    According to our team, our metal casting sealer can withstand temperatures up to 1000F, making it suitable for high-temperature applications like engine components.

  • How much pressure can sealed parts handle?

    According to our experts, parts treated with our metal casting sealer process can withstand pressures up to 10,000 psi - plenty for most industrial and automotive applications.

  • How long before we can use the parts after treatment?

    We hold processed parts for 72 hours to allow proper air curing. The metal casting sealer doesn't need heat curing, which is a plus. We can ship them to you sooner if needed, but we'll include a note about the incomplete curing status so you can plan accordingly.
