Flexible rubber gasket

Flexible rubber gasket is considered by some to be a type of rubber washer while many consider rubber gasket and rubber washer to be the same type of product. In any case, the importance of a flexible rubber gasket is huge. Although the rubber gasket looks like as small and perhaps non very important product, without the flexible rubber gasket thousands and thousands of different machines would not be able to function, and thus the industry. You can also find a flexible rubber gasket in many household appliances, which leads us to the conclusion that it is something that allows the various things that we need for everyday life to function.

Its most common purpose is to stop the leakage of liquid or air, and due to its flexibility they can be placed in many different places. Yet, although a flexible rubber gasket is such a versatile thing, which can be used for a wide variety of purposes, it is a mistake to think that it is universally suitable everywhere. In order for a flexible rubber gasket to perform its functions, it must be of ideal size and made of a material that meets your needs.

Flexible rubber gasket can be in contact with water, chemicals, oil and many other substances. Therefore, it is clear that not one type of rubber is suitable for every purpose. Buna-N as Nitrile rubber is known in the USA, EPDM, silicone, neoprene, natural rubber and many other rubber-like materials are available to you. You can choose what material the flexible rubber gasket will be made of and to what extent it will be flexible.

Another very important factor is size. As we have already said that it is used to stop the leakage of liquid or air, the size must be appropriate in millimeters, otherwise liquids and air will always find their way and then a problem will arise. You can order custom sizes.
