Gaskets, O-Rings & Seals

A gasket is a mechanical seal which fills the space between two or more mating surfaces, generally to prevent leakage from or into the joined objects while under compression. They allow for “less-than-perfect” mating surfaces on machine parts where they can fill irregularities. Gaskets are commonly produced by cutting from sheet materials, and for specific applications, such as high pressure steam systems.

Gaskets come in many different designs based on industrial usage, budget, chemical contact and physical parameters.
