Abstract
A gasket may include a tubular section which has a protection layer and a mesh layer. The protection layer may form a first tube, and the mesh layer may form a second tube, which may be enclosed in the first tube. The mesh layer may be formed by a metal wire in a spiral fashion extending along an axial direction of the second tube. The mesh layer may provide an elastic support to the protection layer when the protection layer tube is pressed by an external force.

A gasket, comprising:
- a tubular section, an extension section extending outward in a radial direction of the tubular section, and a plurality of fasteners, the tubular section having a protection layer and a mesh layer, wherein
- the protection layer forms a first tube,
- the mesh layer forms a second tube and is at least partially enclosed in the first tube,
- the mesh layer is formed by a metal wire in a spiral fashion extending along an axial direction of the second tube, the mesh layer providing an elastic support to the protection layer when the protection layer tube is pressed by an external force,
- one of the plurality of fasteners has a base portion and a dart portion, the base portion being within the second tube, and
- the dart portion of the one of the plurality of fasteners forms an angle with a plane defined by an axis of the extension section and an axis of the tubular section, the angle being smaller than 90 degrees.
