Moulded Rubber Gaskets

Moulded Gaskets

Where the performance of every component matters

Put simply, a gasket is a mechanical seal between distinct substrate sections.

At Martin’s Rubber Company, we produce high-quality moulded rubber gaskets for sealing applications. When designed with the application in mind and the right material selected,  our custom gaskets can effectively seal both liquid and gas applications whilst offering additional properties where required, such as thermal or electrical insulation and conductivity. For complex geometries or to seal gaps which are not on one plane, a moulded gasket is often the only solution that offers a one-piece fully formed gasket to fit. A moulded gasket is repeatable, whilst the lack of joins, splits and fabrication results in a more reliable and effective seal compared to other manufacturing methods. At Martin’s Rubber Company, we are committed to delivering excellence in moulded rubber gaskets, meeting the diverse needs of our customers.

It is also possible to bond the gasket to one (or both) of the substrate faces; for more information on bonding rubber to metals, composites and plastics, please see our rubber bondings page.
