GASKET, IMPELLER HOUSING TO PLATE

$5.19

Description
  • Purpose: This gasket serves the critical function of preventing the leakage of fluids or gases between the impeller housing and the plate, ensuring the integrity and efficiency of the mechanical assembly.
  • Material: The gasket is typically made from durable materials such as rubber, silicone, or composite materials, chosen for their resilience and ability to withstand the operating conditions of the assembly.
  • Design: The gasket is engineered with precision to match the specific dimensions and contours of the mating surfaces of the impeller housing and the plate, ensuring a snug fit and effective sealing performance.
  • Installation: During assembly, the gasket is placed between the impeller housing and the plate. Proper surface preparation and torqueing of fasteners are essential to ensure that the gasket forms a secure and reliable seal.
  • Compression: The gasket relies on compression between the mating surfaces to create a tight seal. The amount of compression required depends on the material and design of the gasket, as well as the operating conditions of the assembly.
