Gaskets

Gasket materials vary by the type of environment in which they are intended to be used, offering resistance against everything from extreme pressures and high temperatures to corrosive chemicals. A gasket’s function is to effectively seal away any leaks. Because gaskets occupy the space between two surfaces, they must be manufactured from a material like silicone that is pliable and can adequately fill any small gaps or irregularities. In some cases, a sealant must be applied directly to the gaskets to secure a leak-free seal. When it comes to craft distilling, gaskets also protect the moving parts of the commercial distilling equipment by not allowing them to rub together or create friction.
