Advantages of Custom Gasket Fabrication
Gaskets Made for Your Equipment and Operating Conditions
Off-the-shelf gaskets do not always provide the correct dimensions, material compatibility, or sealing performance. Custom gasket fabrication allows the gasket to be produced for the specific flange, housing, cover, machinery component, or industrial assembly where it will be installed.
Industrial Rubber & Supply works with customers to provide reliable gasket solutions based on the required size, shape, thickness, temperature range, pressure, chemical exposure, and application.
Reliable Material Performance
The correct gasket material can help withstand heat, pressure, oils, fuels, moisture, chemicals, vibration, and repeated equipment operation. We help customers evaluate available materials based on the demands of the application.
Precision Tailored to Your Needs
Custom gaskets can be fabricated from your drawing, measurements, sample gasket, template, or equipment specifications. Each gasket is cut to provide the proper shape, openings, bolt-hole placement, and overall fit.
Versatile Material Options
We offer gasket materials for general-purpose sealing, electrical insulation, oil resistance, heat exposure, cushioning, vibration control, water service, and demanding industrial environments.
Solutions for Diverse Industries
Our custom gasket fabrication services support maintenance departments, machine shops, manufacturers, contractors, automotive operations, processing facilities, utilities, and other businesses that depend on reliable industrial sealing products.
