Non-asbestos gaskets have replaced asbestos gaskets primarily because asbestos fibers pose serious health risks, including lung cancer and mesothelioma, when inhaled. Strict regulations now prohibit asbestos in most applications, and advanced non-asbestos materials provide comparable or better sealing performance without endangering human health.

Copper gaskets are used to create tight seals in high-temperature and high-pressure applications, commonly found in automotive engines, industrial machinery, and plumbing systems, due to copper's excellent thermal conductivity and resistance to corrosion.

This article provides an overview of the various types of gasket tape, including PTFE, rubber, graphite, and foam tape, highlighting their applications and key properties for sealing and insulation needs.

Discover how long rubber gaskets typically last and what factors influence their durability and service life.

Discover the typical service life of PTFE packing and key factors that affect its longevity in sealing applications.

Graphite packing typically withstands temperatures from -200°C to 500°C in oxidizing environments and up to 3000°C in inert or reducing conditions.
