Rubber is the most important class of materials for sealing in the medium temperature range (-50ºC to +300ºC). This is because rubbers rapidly return to their original shape when any deforming stress or load is removed. Parts can be manufactured from the following rubbers; natural, neoprene, nitrile, EPDM, silicone, FKM and so on.

Many rubbers are available for various working conditions; however they all have one property in common – the effect of heat is cumulative and irreversible. They can be used in a variety of working conditions; typically used with water, oils, chemical and other low pressure fluid applications. Examples of rubber gaskets include everything from standard pipe gaskets, to oil and manway gaskets.

The kind of rubber gasket you require will depend upon what you want it to do and the conditions in which you want it to operate. For instance, if you require a part with oil and fuel resistance, you should consider nitrile or Viton®. The properties of the gasket will depend upon the type of rubber from which it is manufactured.
