A mechanical seal made up of some flexible material like rubber, paper or cork that is used to fill the space between mating surfaces, and prevents unwanted liquid or gas leakage from or into two or more objects under compression is commonly called GASKET. Gaskets used to fill irregularities between mating spaces on machine parts and these seals deliberately show resistance towards temperature, pressure, oscillations, electric and electromagnetic forces. Usually, it is designed in a ring form or sheet by cutting sheet materials.
MATERIALS & DESIGNS:
The selection of a perfect gasket is an important part of the manufacturing process. Gaskets are normally manufactured by flat material sheets such as Paper, rubber (nitrile rubber), felt, foams, metal, cork, and silicon. But is there any better option available?
“The plastic gasket” is the answer!!!
Undoubtedly plastic is a more reliable, durable and affordable material, that is why the plastic gasket is perfect to use due to its versatile implementations and natural resistance to damage environmental conditions. Plastic gaskets have a broad range of applications due to the exhibited properties of the plastic compounds. Its durability with a wide range of temperature tolerance makes plastic a must material for the specific types of gaskets and seals. There is a variety of plastic according to its color, thickness and hardness and also with the presence and absence of PSA (pressure sensitive adhesive) backing. There are two main types of plastic: Thermosetting polymer (Polyethylene a polymer) and thermoplastic (Nylon), the common plastic gaskets manufacture by plastic material are:
Acetate Gasket: Acetal is highly resistant towards gasoline, hydrocarbons, natural chemicals, and solvents. These gaskets are very strong and offer a bridge between metals and plastics. They are good weight-saving metal replacements.
ABS Gasket: The ABS gaskets provide stability due to its temperature range, electrical insulation, chemical resistance, dimensional firmness, and mechanical soundness.
Nylon Gasket: Nylon gaskets are highly suitable for bearings and gears due to its abrasion resistance and high strength. Nylon gaskets also show adequate electrical properties.Teflon Gasket: these gaskets have excellent dielectric properties with good thermal insulation that make it good for both the medical and food production industries.
Kapton Gasket: these are mostly used in electronics and flexible printed circuits. It is an amazing combination of electrical, chemical, thermal and mechanical properties.PVC Gasket: PVC gaskets are with brilliant chemical resistance and mechanical strength. Mostly use in chemical plants due to maximum resistance against chemicals.
Polycarbonate gaskets: it is the best thermal insulator and with high dielectric strength and low absorption.
High impact polystyrene Gasket: These gaskets are usually used in house wares, food packaging, office products and natural high impact polystyrene for food processing.
USES OF PLASTIC GASKET:
Due to the adaptable nature of plastic; the plastic gaskets can be used in many ways. Plastic can be transformed or shaped into various shapes and sizes and use as a thin shim to place in between the products and to prevent corrosion.
