WHEN WILL MY GASKET BE READY TO USE?

摘要

Sealing an assembly with a pre-cut gasket spec'd for the job is a no-brainer. Just pop it on, assemble the parts and torque to spec. But what if the cut gasket isn't available, or you can't get it in time to finish the job? Many techs frequently face this situation and turn to a gasket maker for the solution; but even after a successful installation, there can be some nagging thoughts. Did I allow enough time for set up? Has it cured properly? Is the torque right? Will it seep or cause a leak? Here is some information that will help you get the most out of your gasketing efforts.
