Product Overview
Flat Silicone Sealing Rubber Gaskets need to follow the mating seat in their relaxed shape. Stretching a flat piece to reach a locating feature can thin or distort another part of the contact, leaving the assembled joint different from the intended profile.
Cut or molded rubber forms can be developed around the required outline, with material selected for the actual medium and operating conditions. Compare the gasket opening, outer boundary and any mounting features as a complete shape rather than checking only one pair of dimensions.
Place the gasket on a clean face and verify alignment before the joint closes. Keep narrow regions from wrinkling or being dragged by a fastener. Follow the specified assembly condition and evaluate the completed seal in its intended service. During disassembly, lift the gasket without pulling on one thin edge and inspect for local impressions or tearing. If the shape no longer fits naturally, replace the part and check the seat instead of attempting to stretch a permanently distorted gasket back into alignment.
- Material options
- Silicone. Custom formulation and color for the intended contact conditions.
- Hardness selection
- Silicone: 20–80 Shore A. Stretching a flat piece to reach a locating feature can thin or distort another part of the contact, leaving the assembled joint different from the intended profile.
- Custom dimensions
- Compare the gasket opening, outer boundary and any mounting features as a complete shape rather than checking only one pair of dimensions.
- Fit & assembly
- Place the gasket on a clean face and verify alignment before the joint closes.
- Use & inspection
- During disassembly, lift the gasket without pulling on one thin edge and inspect for local impressions or tearing.

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.
