Why Masking Plugs Fall Out
Plug fallout is usually a fit and process issue, not only a material issue. Start by checking geometry and handling.

Silicone vs EPDM vs Vinyl Masking
Material choice should follow the process exposure, geometry and validation result rather than a generic material preference.

How to Choose a Masking Plug Size
A plug choice starts from measured geometry, then needs a test under the actual finishing process.

Mask Threaded Holes Before Powder Coating
Threaded-hole masking requires the correct hole fit, insertion depth and removal method before the coating line starts.

Powder Coating Masking Failures
Most masking failures can be narrowed down by geometry, fit, process cycle and removal method.

Masking Material Data Request
Material documentation must be linked to the proposed grade and intended application rather than presented as a generic promise.

Plating Stop-Off Plug Selection
Stop-off selection is an application problem: the chemistry and no-plate boundary matter as much as the basic size.
