As the name of the company suggests, Mask Seals Private Limited (www.maskseal.com) manufactures high-quality plastic polymer products, such as sealing and damping items. Launched in 1997, today Mask Seals is a leading company in its domain in India. The superior quality of its customized PTFE products is attributed to pioneering concepts and advanced technology.

Mask Seals’ product range includes PTFE/Modified PTFE (Seats); Stem Packing & Cheveron Packing; PTFE Rings, Bushes, Carbon Tape; and plays an important role in the pump industry. Aside from plastic polymer products made of advanced plastic grades like VIRGIN PEEK, FILLED PEEK and PCTFE, the company manufactures metal seats made of ASTM A182 F316, F304, ASTM A105, Duplex and Super Duplex steel.

Mask Seals’ clients include the automobile industry, valves & actuator industry, piston manufacturers, crankshaft manufacturers, hydraulic braking system manufacturers, power steering manufacturers Viscous D, amper manufacturers, guide chain manufacturers, tractor manufacturers, EGR system manufacturers, pressure switch manufacturers, and two and four-wheeler OEMs. A significant part of the company’s production is also exported.

Considering the need of its customers and innovative technology, Mask Seals has now come up with a new facility - the “Plasma Etching” technique, which means it now uses PTFE Gas used for plasma-hydrogen plastics like polypropylene or PTFE for making the automobile industry seals. Plasma etching sets new standards to get rid of hazardous gasses released by chemical etching, thereby making it more eco-friendly. In fact, Chemical etching has been banned the European countries as per the Euro 6 emission control rules. Aside from being the sole manufacturer of “Plasma Etching” in India, the creditworthiness of Mask Seals Private Limited remains relatively high.
