A gasket is often used in industrial applications as a mechanical seal to fill the space between two objects and prevent leakage between them while under compression. Gaskets can be made from a variety of different materials including rubber, silicone, metal, fiberglass, or plastic polymers. Different types of gaskets can withstand different amounts of compression. Gaskets are often used in a number of different industries including the automobile, aerospace, and manufacturing industries. Companies that need to purchase large amounts of gaskets will often buy them from a wholesale dealer because of the discount prices they can receive on large orders.
