Gasket Sealants and Makers

Gasket sealants and makers join two mating surfaces together, such as flanged components, to seal the bond and prevent leaks. Gasket sealants, also referred to as gasket dressings, reinforce the seal of an existing precut material gasket and extend its life. Gasket adhesives hold the material gasket in place during assembly but do not have sealing properties. Gasket makers have good gap-filling properties and replace the need for an existing material gasket.
