Engineering Support and In-House Tooling

We don’t just mold polyurethane parts—we engineer complete solutions.

Our on-site design team works directly with OEMs, manufacturers, and end users to develop optimized molded polyurethane components. Meridian Laboratory manufactures, maintains, and stores 100% of our molds in-house, allowing for faster turnaround times and full quality control. With thousands of standardized molds already available, many projects can start with minimal to no additional setup costs.

Need something custom? We offer affordable tooling options for both low and high-volume production. With full CNC machining capabilities, we also manufacture cores and inserts in-house—delivering fully finished parts from prototype through production volumes.

High-Performance Urethane, Engineered to Last

Every ML6® polyurethane part is produced using proprietary molding processes and exclusive raw materials. Our process ensures:

  • Tight tolerances (≤0.0015” TIR on molded parts)
  • Superior bond strength between the polyurethane and core
  • Consistent quality that outperforms rubber, silicone, and low-grade urethanes
  • Improved friction/grip from our molded, unground drive surfaces

Whether your current supplier is no longer available, you’re experiencing quality issues, or you’re looking for a domestic alternative, our reverse engineering capabilities provide a seamless transition to a high-performance, American-made solution.
