Gasket source
(OP)
Hi, I'm new here.
Does anyone know a good source for gaskets? I guess I could google it, but I'd like to get some suggestions from people "in the know", so to speak.
Thanks in advance for your responses.

RE: Gasket source
When I need custom gaskets, I generate drawings and I contact local rubber vendors. They cut stuff out for me, and so far, I am happy with the results. Custom cut gaskets are cheap.
My rubber requirements are usually that the rubber is available. If you have exotic requirements, you will have to research and Google.

Just curious, how significant is the price difference?
RE: Gasket source
The price difference between what? There is not necessarily an alternative to a custom gasket. Making an off-the-shelf part work could rack up a lot more design time.

I'll contact some custom vendors and see what the prices are like.
Thanks again!

You wouldn't happen to work for Lamons, would you?
As a long-time reader of these forums, it's usually suspicious when someone comes on, makes one reply in a thread that is several months old, and that reply promotes a particular manufacturer.
