Gaskets & Seals are engineered mechanical components—typically made from elastomers, fibers, metals, graphite, PTFE, or composite materials—designed to prevent the escape, ingress, or cross-contamination of fluids, gases, or process media at the interface of two or more stationary or moving machine elements. Gaskets are generally static sealing elements, formed into precise geometries and compressed between flanges, covers, housings, or mating surfaces to accommodate surface irregularities, distribute load, and maintain sealing integrity under thermal, pressure, and mechanical variations. Seals encompass dynamic sealing elements such as O-rings, lip seals, mechanical seals, and rotary or reciprocating seals that maintain controlled leakage performance while allowing relative motion. Together, Gaskets & Seals constitute the core of industrial and automotive sealing systems, ensuring bolt-load retention, media compatibility, vibration and thermal cycling tolerance, and long-term reliability across applications including engines and powertrain assemblies, pumps and compressors, chemical and petrochemical process equipment, power generation, fluid handling systems, and general industrial machinery.
