1620s, caskette, originally nautical, "small rope or plaited coil" used to secure a furled sail, of uncertain origin, perhaps from French garcette "a gasket," literally "littl [..]

See Keeping The Heat In - Chapter 3: Materials: Figure 3-3 Electrical outlet gasket

Flat device usually made of fiber or rubber used to provide a watertight seal between metal joints.

Static seal effected when a deformable material is sandwiched and compressed between two mating surfaces. Gates: The openings in an injection or transfer mold that ensure even flow into the cavity. Gate Mark: A raised spot or small depression on the surface of an injection or transfer molded part where gates interface the cavity. Gland: Complete ca [..]

(n) seal consisting of a ring for packing pistons or sealing a pipe joint

(1) A device that acts as a seal between two contacting surfaces.

(2) Gina Gasket: A proprietary form of gasket used to seal immersion joints, particularly on concrete tunnels. It consists of a full-bodied rubber section able to transfer large compression forces, and a soft nose able to provide an initial seal under low compression. For binocular sections, each circular tunnel usually has its own gasket around th [..]

(3) Omega Gasket or Seal: This seal, shaped like the Greek letter Omega (W) is installed across flexible immersion joints from within a tunnel after immersion and joining. It may form a secondary permanent seal or it may become the primary seal. It is bolted to the internal faces each side of the joint. It may be replaced in a similar manner on an [..]

(4) Soft-nosed Gasket: See Gina Gasket, above.

(5) Temporary Immersion Gasket: This is usually an extruded rubber section that acts as a seal when it is compressed. After completion of the permanent joint, the seal is no longer needed. This type of gasket is commonly used in the United States.

A device that acts as a seal between two contacting surfaces.

A small ring to create an air-tight seal around the caseback, crystal and crown. It protects against water during normal wear. Gaskets are rubber and should be checked every few years to maintain wate [..]

Used between two static surfaces to provide a seal. Made from a variety of deformable materials.

A thin, expanding material used to seal the gaps and imperfections between hard, adjoining surfaces. Gear Ratio

Resilient(spongy) or flexible material used between mating surfaces of refrigeration unit parts, or on doors to give a leak proof seal.

A thin layer of material placed between two surfaces or joints to make a tight seal. Cylinder head and exhaust manifold gaskets are now made from a variety of hightech materials, including composites [..]

A seal, made from rubber or other synthetic material in the shape of a circle and of polygonal cross-section. See O-RING.

It is a seal made of flexible material which fills the space between two or more mating surfaces to prevent leakage while under compression. 

The gasket resists against water by sealing the caseback, crystal and crown.

Any thin, soft material installed between two metal surfaces to create a good seal.

A channel or frame, usually made of rubber, which holds glass parts in place.

A rubber seal that holds auto glass to a vehicle

A seal, usually of rubber, that holds a piece of auto glass to the vehicle body. There are various sizes and shapes of glass part gaskets, depending on vehicle design.

Most gaskets are static seals. They are used a great deal and for all kinds of purposes.Gaskets are commonly fitted between two flanges, in many cases in a groove in the Flange. Gaskets with modified [..]

Length of sennit fitted for securing sail when furling. 2. Grommet or packing in a gland or pipe joint.

An elastic packing material used for making joints watertight.

Ties used to tie up the sails when they are furled to the boom or yards.

a light line for securing a furled sail to a boom; a sail stop

Ties used to tie up the sails when they are furled to the boom or yards.

A Filter Gasket is a material used to prevent air leakage between the filter frame surface and the filter holding device.

Material inserted between two contact surfaces to ensure a air-tight or fluid-tight seal.

A lip which runs around the front of the filter frame to ensure that no air (and its contaminants) escapes around the side of the filter within the AHU.

The black rubber strip that runs around the pane of glass in a window to create a weatherproof join.

A component softer than the parts to be sealed, which is compressed between two flanges to prevent the system fluid leaking to atmosphere.

Any material (such as paper, cork, asbestos, stainless steel or other types of metal, or rubber) used to seal two essentially stationary surfaces.

Any material (such as paper, cork, asbestos, stainless steel or other types of metal or rubber) used to seal two essentially stationary surfaces.

A device, usually made of a deformable material, that is used between two relatively static surfaces to prevent leakage.

Any mechanical seal that serves to fill the space between two objects, generally to prevent leakage between the two objects while under compression. A material which may be clamped between faces a [..]
