Closing Business - get supplies
We have made the decision to retire and close down HD Industrial Design. We thank you all for your valued loyalty and the hard earned money you spent with us. We will no longer be supporting any of our products (as they are outside the warranty period) and will only offer our remaining inventory for sale (membrane, heatsink, tubing, fittings, and curved jigs/foam) and once that is gone thats it, we will not be restocking these items. We will update this page with replacement part information as items sell out.
Membrane: Here are the details on how to get replacement membrane going forward. You will have to buy linear feet and cut to press size, there are two options for purchasing.
- Bulk by the 50ft roll: If you are interested in buying bulk direct from the silicone manufacturer, 50ft roll minimum order required and pricing will vary greatly based on the quantity ordered - must apply for a quote from manufacturer. Manufacturer - https://viprubber.com/ (this is not a retail seller, so you will have to go through their process to purchase direct) Silicone specs to order: VIP PART ID: 23380 - .032"THICK +/-.012" X 49"WIDE X 50 FT LONG, USEABLE TALC FREE, PAPER LINER GRAY 60 DUROMETER COMMERCIAL SILICONE ROHS AND REACH COMPLIANT
- By the foot (easier option): If you don’t want to go through that process and would rather order by the linear foot from a retailer KnifeKits.com - Click here to purchase by the foot
