About Gasket and Seals
Seals and gaskets play a vital role in any assembly process. These components are widely used to fit two mating surfaces to prevent leakage.
Seals
A seal is used to control leakage of liquids or gases in the automotive, manufacturing, aerospace, electrical and electronics and petrochemical industries. Seals help in reducing problems associated with pollution due to leakage of contaminants, corrosion, and fatigue, which can destroy equipment leading to reduction of efficiency; increase in cost; and product loss.
Gaskets
The gasket is a type of static seal, which is specifically used to provide a barrier between mating surfaces of mechanical assemblies. Gaskets are used to retain internal pressures and prevent liquids, gasses, and contaminants to escape from assemblies. Gaskets need to be resilient enough to conform to cavity irregularities and should remain rigid enough to provide a tight seal between the mating parts. The load of the gasket needs to be distributed evenly over the whole area of the gasket rather than few points with high loads.
