GASKET

$0.75

Description
  1. Sealing Function: Gaskets are primarily used to create a tight seal between two mating surfaces, preventing the leakage of fluids, gases, or other substances.
  2. Materials: Gaskets can be made from various materials, including rubber, cork, paper, metal, silicone, or composite materials, chosen based on factors such as temperature, pressure, and chemical compatibility.
  3. Applications: Gaskets find application in a wide range of industries, including automotive, manufacturing, plumbing, aerospace, and marine, where they are used in engines, pumps, valves, pipes, and other equipment.
  4. Types: There are several types of gaskets available, including flat gaskets, spiral wound gaskets, ring gaskets, and O-ring gaskets, each designed for specific applications and operating conditions.
  5. Installation: Gaskets are placed between the mating surfaces of components before they are bolted or clamped together. When the components are tightened, the gasket compresses, creating a tight and leak-proof seal.
