Gaskets

Our Selection of Gaskets

Full Face Gaskets

Our collection of Flange gaskets and Pipe gaskets includes a number of Rubber Gasketing solutions in selectively different materials, some of which including Nitrile, SBR & EPDM. Flange Gaskets are a widely used part for the covering and protection of a pipe flange, along with Pipe Gaskets which work to seal off the flanged area around a pipe. Equipped with bolt holes for security these gaskets carry a number of ideal resistance properties which are required for such a heavy duty use, these factors include high temperature resistance, acid resistance, alkali resistance and a whole lot more. Full Face types are suggested over insertion for any Pipe Flange that has bolt holes, especially ones that are heavy and for external usage. Always make note of the specification for your requirements and let us know, this will help us come back to you with the perfect solution.

Insertion Gaskets

Our Rubber Gaskets selection includes a number of solutions for use as Pipe Gaskets or Flange Gaskets. Rubber Gaskets are one of the most sought after components inside this range due to their ideal resistance properties that they hold. The rubber versions kept in stock have excellent resistance against factors such as Acids / Alkali's, making them ideal for use either as Flange Gaskets or Pipe Gaskets where-required. When it comes to uses, the Flange type are used to cover the flange of a pipe and come in two different variants, Insertion or Full face, full face covering the full face of the flange to provide an overall protection. Insertion however, as previously mentioned are used by 'inserting' them in between two pieces of metal, whether it is a pipe or round poles.
