GASKETING

It seems like such a small part. But the quality of a gasket can make an enormous difference in product performance. So we were looking for a state-of-the-art solution. Merryweather offered us an economical gasket from the latest technology. It sealed properly, and prevented moisture and particles from compromising moving parts. Durable, flexible, and affordable. Why would we look anywhere else?

Gaskets are available in a range of mediums and designs that meet the specifications of engineers working in diverse industries. So, how do you determine the best choice for your project? It's not an easy decision to make, but it may well be a critical component of your bottom-line success. To get started, consider these suggestions:

- The right gasket can ensure long-term functionality. Heat, electronic emissions, energy dissipation needs, UV exposure, moisture, harmful particles -- these are only a sampling of the factors that you must consider. Poor gasket choices result in maintenance problems, unhappy customers, and lost sales.

- Gasket choices impact final costs. Simply put, you may find that many commonly used gaskets cost more than innovative, newcomer solutions. It pays to stay alert and informed about your options.

- Consider value-added services available from selected fabricators. For example, foam gaskets can be enhanced with single- or double-sided adhesives. When choosing a provider, look for these meaningful extras.
