FRC Group’s FRC Component Products fields an extensive line of injection and compression molding equipment that can yield ultra-close tolerances with either standard or engineering-grade resins. We’re capable of molding parts with maximum dimensions as large as 30” x 12” x 6”, featuring tolerances as tight as +0.005”. Our team has years of experience in molding connectors, gears, O-rings, panels, custom shapes, gaskets, electronic components, and other products. Backed by our own in-house CAD, tooling, and machine shop, we have the capability to streamline operations, keeping cost low and productivity high.

We offer compression, transfer, and injection molding as well as insert molding. For specialized molding operations, we can provide high-vacuum encapsulation and potting processes; manufacturing parts that can resist exposure in hostile environmental conditions. Since 1994, we’ve worked with an array of materials including elastomers, epoxies, thermoplastics, polyethylene, PTFE, foam, fiberglass, and many more. We can handle parts with weights between .0005 lbs. and 3.0 lbs. at a production rate of up to 500 units per minute. Our 1 million sq. ft. facilities both in US and Offshore are geared for virtually any manufacturing run, from prototyping to high volume production. We practice lean manufacturing methods, optimizing our workloads and minimizing waste in order to reduce costs and improve the value of our products.

We’ve provided moldings for a wide range of applications and continue to serve the performance needs required by the aerospace and automotive industries. We can provide full compliance with standards by ISO, NADCAP, MIL-SPEC, FAA, ASTM, and ANSI. Our quality program influences all of our operating procedures, processes, and documentation across every department in our company.
