Mica Splittings Plate
We specialize in the manufacture of simple and complex Mica parts, and have a design and engineering team capable of supporting product development, change and fulfillment. Our production capabilities are further elevated by propriety and internally developed equipment that push fabrication options beyond the scope of other fabricated mica parts manufacturers.
Because we make all of our Flexible Mica Splitting Plates in-house on our own machinery we can customize to almost any specification and ensure the highest quality, all while minimizing leadtime.
