In conclusion, U-shaped silicone gaskets, white rubber gasket sheets, and waterproof rubber gaskets offer versatile and effective sealing solutions for a wide range of industrial and commercial applications. Understanding the advantages and applications of these gaskets is crucial for selecting the appropriate sealing components to ensure protection, reliability, and longevity in various systems and equipment.

There is a British Standard laid down for the control of synthetic rubbers. BS 3574 (1989) helps to determine shelf life – for instance, Nitrile (NBR) and Polyacrylic (ACM) are Group ‘B’ rubbers and have a 7-year life, whilst Silicone (VMQ) and Fluoroelastomers (Viton®) are Group ‘C’ rubbers and have a 10-year shelf life. PTFE and Leather do not come into this category but like the others should be kept in the original packing for as long as possible away from direct light, dust, and humidity. Ozone, which can also be produced by battery-driven forklift trucks has a very bad effect on synthetic rubbers. Finally, protect the sealing lip – DO NOT hang the seals on nails, wire etc.
