Custom made nitrile neoprene EPDM FKM rubber gasket

A custom rubber gasket can use nitrile, neoprene, EPDM or an appropriate FKM formulation according to the intended service. These are distinct material choices, even when the finished outline is the same. The sealed medium, temperature, movement and cleaning exposure should guide the final selection.

Define the required shape independently of the compound. Inner and outer dimensions, thickness and any fastening holes determine how the gasket fits between the mating faces. A correct material in an incorrectly sized profile can still leave an open path or become damaged during tightening.

Check the complete joint for the intended sealing duty without assuming a universal pressure or chemical-resistance capability. Keep the mating faces clean and place the gasket without stretching it to align a hole. When replacing a component, retain the identity of the selected formulation as well as its dimensions. Similar color and appearance are not sufficient to establish that another gasket will behave the same way under the joint's actual conditions.

Material options

EPDM / NBR / FKM / Neoprene. Custom formulation and color for the intended contact conditions.

Hardness selection

Rubber: 30–90 Shore A. Check the complete joint for the intended sealing duty without assuming a universal pressure or chemical-resistance capability.

Custom dimensions

Inner and outer dimensions, thickness and any fastening holes determine how the gasket fits between the mating faces.

Fit & assembly

Keep the mating faces clean and place the gasket without stretching it to align a hole.
