IMPCO announces the availability of a new booklet which explains the benefits of impregnation technology for permanently sealing porous parts.

This detailed, twelve page booklet includes valuable information for helping research, engineering, production, purchasing and technical personnel improve the quality of their end product and increase productivity.

The different types of porosity are described and how impregnation fills the pores to make metal parts permanently pressure tight. Impregnation allows manufacturers to save time, money, energy, and insure quality by salvaging parts which would otherwise have to be rejected.

Some typical, proven applications for impregnation technology include meters and measuring devices, pumps, hydraulic systems, engines, powdered metal parts, aircraft/aerospace parts, fuel and brake systems, wood parts, and refrigeration and air conditioning components.
