With over 50 years of experience, StockCap's custom dip molding capabilities are second to none. We have pioneered the market in regards to the double dip and triple dip process and invented numerous materials including Tuffoam®, Softex®, Vynaprene®, and Polysuede®. As a fully integrated manufacturer, we also strive to offer our customers the best value in the industry.

Our extensive material compounding capabilities not only allow us to offer the largest selection of materials in the industry, but we are also able to achieve the lowest possible cost on our plastisol. By mixing our own plastisol we avoid the mark-up that most molders pay to their compounder. We are also able to recycle the plastisol to eliminate expensive disposal costs and be more environmentally friendly.
The breadth of our business allows us to offer more standard formulas and colors than anyone. While others charge set up fees or require very high minimums for "special" colors or formulas, we typically have something standard that will work or we can make it with no extraordinary fees.
If none of our existing formulas work for your application, we can utilize our research and development lab to develop a new material. Over the years, we have developed over 500 formulas for the varying needs of our customers.
Not only do we have over 50 years of design experience, but we utilize some of the most sophisticated design and manufacturing software to seamlessly integrate the tooling fabrication process.
Once a part is designed by our engineering staff, the file is electronically transferred to our state-of-the-art mold fabrication center where prototypes and new mold sets are produced.
One of the primary benefits to dip molding is related to its inexpensive and accurate prototyping process. With a dedicated sample lab producing parts 24 hours a day, we are able to provide prototypes for engineering and marketing tests at an insignificant cost.
At StockCap, we utilize numerous machine designs to make your parts in the most cost effective manner. Most dip molders utilize flexible machines that allow them to make many different sizes, shapes, and volumes on one machine. Unfortunately, with flexibility comes inefficiency. By having numerous machine designs, we can choose the style that will run your product in the most cost effective manner in regards to tooling investment and piece price.
Our machines also have the capability of double dipping and triple dipping and making parts that utilize our exclusive manufacturing technologies for making Softex™ and Tuffoam® products.
