Product Overview
A sealing silicone gasket should be selected around the actual food equipment joint and its cleaning process. The formulation and finished component need assessment for the substance, temperature, and contact conditions involved. The gasket's outline should also allow the relevant surfaces to be inspected and cleaned when the equipment is opened.
Check the mating face dimensions, available compression, and support around openings. The part should remain located without being stretched to reach a fixing point. Keep enough sealing width around passages and avoid recesses that leave a narrow section unsupported during closure.
Install on clean faces and bring the joint together evenly. After cleaning or disassembly, inspect for residue, cuts, and a recovered shape that no longer matches the seat. Follow the equipment's intended replacement process where the seal is damaged. A similar silicone outline should not be substituted solely by appearance, since a different thickness or formulation can change both contact and response to the established cleaning conditions.
- Material options
- Silicone. Custom formulation and color for the intended contact conditions.
- Hardness selection
- Silicone: 20–80 Shore A. The part should remain located without being stretched to reach a fixing point.
- Custom dimensions
- Keep enough sealing width around passages and avoid recesses that leave a narrow section unsupported during closure.
- Fit & assembly
- Check the mating face dimensions, available compression, and support around openings.
- Use & inspection
- After cleaning or disassembly, inspect for residue, cuts, and a recovered shape that no longer matches the seat.
Photos illustrate structure or material only. Access around the food-equipment joint and sealing width beside each passage can be considered together in your gasket outline. ETOL directly manufactures custom-shaped silicone and rubber parts to your requirements.

Ordering this custom component
Can the shape be adjusted to my mating parts?
Yes. Show the receiving opening, contact surfaces and clearance limits. We can review the dimensions and retaining features around the intended fit.
Which details should be agreed before tooling?
Agree the critical dimensions, material, hardness, visible surfaces and sample requirements. Explain how the part is installed and which interfaces control its function.
Can a sample help define the replacement?
A sample can help explain the structure. Compare it with the assembly because wear, swelling or compression may have changed its original dimensions.
How is the quotation for this part determined?
The material, part geometry, tooling, quantity and finishing affect the quotation. Include the intended batch size and delivery destination when describing your requirements.
