Custom Gaskets Australia: Precision Cutting for Any Shape & Size
CNC cut custom gaskets seal industrial equipment where standard sizes cannot achieve proper fit. Industrial Expert manufactures precision-cut gaskets in Melbourne from over 50 materials including rubber, PTFE, graphite, and compressed fibre. Each CNC cut custom gasket is produced to exact specifications with tolerances to ±0.1mm.
Submit a CAD drawing, sketch dimensions, or send a physical sample. Our technical team confirms material selection based on operating temperature, pressure, and chemical exposure. Most orders ship within 1-2 business days with delivery Australia-wide.
What Are Custom Gaskets?
Custom gaskets are sealing components manufactured to specific dimensions, shapes, and material requirements. Unlike standard gaskets in fixed sizes, custom gaskets match exact specifications from technical drawings, samples, or dimensional requirements.
Industrial applications require custom gaskets when standard sizes cannot accommodate unique flange dimensions, irregular bolt patterns, or specialised sealing conditions. Custom fabrication allows selection of specific materials, thicknesses from 0.5mm to 50mm, and tolerances suited to your application.
Custom Cut vs Standard Gaskets
| Attribute | Standard Gaskets | Custom Gaskets |
|---|---|---|
| Dimensions | Fixed sizes per AS2129, ANSI | Exact specifications to ±0.1mm |
| Lead Time | Immediate from stock | 1-2 business days |
| Minimum Order | Often bulk purchase | Single unit available |
| Tooling Cost | None | None with CNC cutting |

Custom Gasket Materials
Material selection determines gasket performance. Industrial Expert stocks rubber, PTFE, compressed fibre, graphite, and specialty materials for custom cutting.
Rubber Materials
| Material | Temperature Range | Chemical Resistance | Applications |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nitrile (NBR) | -30°C to +120°C | Oils, fuels, hydraulic fluids | Automotive, hydraulics |
| EPDM | -40°C to +150°C | Water, steam, mild acids | HVAC, water systems |
| Silicone | -60°C to +230°C | Ozone, UV, food contact | Food processing |
| Viton (FKM) | -20°C to +200°C | Acids, fuels, solvents | Chemical processing |
| Neoprene | -30°C to +100°C | Weathering, moderate oils | General industrial |
PTFE and Fluoropolymer Materials
PTFE provides near-universal chemical resistance from -200°C to +260°C. Virgin PTFE offers maximum purity for pharmaceutical applications. Expanded PTFE conforms to irregular flange surfaces. Gylon materials (3500, 3504, 3510) combine PTFE with fillers for improved mechanical properties. For high-pressure applications, consider metallic gaskets with PTFE filler.
Compressed Fibre and Specialty Materials
Garlock 3000 (Blue-Gard) suits general industrial applications to 260°C and 100 bar. Garlock 3760 (Multiswell) self-energises for fuel and oil applications. Graphite gaskets handle extreme temperatures to 450°C in oxidising environments or 650°C in steam service. For lighter duty applications, paper gaskets provide a cost-effective alternative.
