Frequently asked questions
Difference between foam and solid gasket?
Foam's cellular structure seals well even under very low closing force — ideal for panels. Solid gasket suits joints needing more force and durability.
Can gaskets be made self-adhesive?
Yes — single-sided adhesive foam gasket speeds up panel and cover assembly noticeably.
Where is Klingersil gasket used?
Flange and cover joints, especially where temperature and pressure exceed what elastomer gaskets can take. Cut from sheet to your dimensions.
Can custom profile gaskets be manufactured?
Yes — from a cross-section you give us or a sample you send, including profiles no longer manufactured elsewhere.
