What is a Gasket?
A shaped sheet or ring of rubber which fills the space and effectively seals the junction between two surfaces that might not fit perfectly together.
Its role is to prevent leakage while in a compressed state. It may be cut from just about any rubber material and compound, from silicone rubber to fluorosilicone.
For a fully yielding gasket that performs well under pressure, we use non-asbestos materials. This ensures we supply the safest products to the highest of British Standards.
