Nitrofreeze® Cryogenic Solutions is providing molders of liquid silicone rubber (LSR) with a faster and more efficient way to get flash-free parts without any waste. Since Nitrofreeze® cryogenic deflashing uses fine blast media that won’t damage LSR parts, molders don’t have to run more parts than they need to account for scrap during deflashing. Molders can save time and money during production, get back 100% of the parts that they send to Nitrofreeze®, and receive parts that look the same as when molded but without any flash.
