What is a Segmented Gasket and When You Should Use One
Segmented gaskets are manufactured by joining together multiple sections of material. Joining techniques employed include dovetailing, butt-joining, and beveling using the technique of "skiving."
Segmented gaskets are often necessary due to either the limited manufactured size of the sheet or to minimize waste generated with centers.
There are a number of situations where your product or process may require segmented gaskets. Because of how sheets of gasket material are manufactured, some pieces of machinery are too big to utilize a single-piece gasket.
