Quality Engineered Gaskets and Materials

Rubber	BUNA N, NEOPRENE, EP, SILICONE, VITON, URETHANE are the most common rubber materials used for gaskets. Rubber is classified by ASTM D-2000 or SAE J-200 specifications. PS&E can provide these rubbers and all other rubber materials in thickness from .008 through 2 inches.
Rubber and Fabric	The kinds of rubber described above can be combined on one or both sides of fabric such as dacron, nylon, Nomex, cotton and wool. The fabric-rubber sandwich can be plied to any thickness. Thickness availability runs from .004 through 1 inch.
Sponge	Sponge rubber is available as open or closed cell and is made from the materials designations. Both open and closed cell sponges can be made in thickness from 1/32 through 6 inches.
Plastic	Plastics cover a broad range of materials such as Mylar, Polyethylene, phenolics, ABS, polypropylene, Teflon, etc. Available in thickness from .002 through .500.
Metal	Soft metals, such as copper, lead and aluminum can be cut on the kinds of equipment used for gaskets. Thickness is limited by the hardness of the material.
