Rubber Gaskets
Molded and die-cut flat gaskets in NBR, EPDM, FKM, silicone and custom compounds, produced to drawing in standard and custom profiles.
Molded rubber sealing components.
Overview
What it is
A gasket is a flat, molded or die-cut elastomer sheet shaped to seal a joint between two mating flat surfaces — typically where an O-ring's round cross-section isn't the right geometry for the joint.
Compressed between two flanges or housing halves, the gasket fills surface irregularities and maintains a seal as the two faces are bolted or clamped together, accommodating a wider range of flange flatness and surface finish than a round-section O-ring can.
