Rubber Gasket

Rubber Gasket

A rubber gasket is a flexible sealing component used to prevent leaks, block contaminants, and absorb vibrations between two mating surfaces. Made from elastomers like EPDM, Nitrile (NBR), Silicone, or Neoprene, it ensures airtight, watertight, or chemical-resistant seals in industrial, automotive, and household applications.
Key Features & Benefits
✔ Leak Prevention – Creates secure seals against fluids, gases, and dust.
✔ Vibration Damping – Reduces noise and mechanical wear.
✔ Temperature & Chemical Resistance – Performance ranges from -60°C to 300°C (-76°F to 572°F), depending on material.
✔ Customizable – Available as O-rings, sheets, or molded shapes.
✔ Cost-Effective – Durable and easy to install/replace.
Material Comparison
Type Best For Limits
EPDM Weather/steam resistance Poor oil resistance
Nitrile (NBR) Fuel/oil applications Limited high-temp use
Silicone Food/medical (non-toxic) Lower tear strength
Neoprene Outdoor/ozone exposure Stiffens in cold temps
Applications
Automotive: Engine gaskets, fluid seals.
Plumbing: Pipe joints, faucets.
Electronics: Enclosure sealing.
Industrial: Pumps, compressors.
Installation Tips
Clean surfaces before placement.
Avoid over-tightening to prevent deformation.
Replace if cracked, flattened, or brittle.
