Rubber Gaskets & Seals

A Complete Guide on Custom Gaskets

Gaskets are simple yet essential elements of industrial systems, providing a seal between components of pipes and mechanical assemblies. As important as it is to tightly link surfaces like pipe faces, it’s impossible to manufacture perfectly smooth junctions and corrosion can introduce new aberrations over time. Gaskets help to maintain a seal between components, ensuring… Continue reading A Complete Guide on Custom Gaskets

Selection Guide to Rubber Gasket Materials

Gaskets are mechanical seals that are designed to fill the gap between two mating surfaces. In fluid processing and handling equipment, they prevent process fluids from escaping the system and contaminants from entering the system. This ensures the system does not waste valuable materials or experience damage from the unwanted materials. Given the critical function… Continue reading Selection Guide to Rubber Gasket Materials

Viton vs. Buna Seals

Seals are essential components in various industrial applications to prevent fluid or gas leakage and protect against environmental elements. Due to their advantageous properties, Viton and Buna are two of the most commonly used elastomers for sealing. They offer excellent resistance to compression sets and are compatible with most oils and lubricants, particularly petroleum-based substances.… Continue reading Viton vs. Buna Seals
