When cut gaskets fail, liquid gaskets are often the best solution

A gasket failure can be a time consuming and expensive repair. Cut gaskets don’t always store well, which means waiting for an order to be delivered. And on older equipment, you may not even be able to get a replacement gasket. But liquid gaskets make gasket repair fast, easy, reliable and effective.
