In order to produce a gasket that is adapted to be arranged between two components requiring sealing of which at least one contains a first metallic material which is less noble than aluminium and the gasket comprises at least one gasket layer including a plate consisting of a second metallic material which is nobler than the first metallic material, such that contact corrosion on the components requiring sealing is reduced or completely prevented, it is proposed that the gasket layer should comprise a sealing element which is arranged at an outer boundary region of the plate, should consist of an elastomer material and, in the installed state of the gasket, should gasket the gap between the gasket layer and the component which contains the first metallic material in a substantially fluid-tight manner.
A gasket adapted to be arranged between two components requiring sealing, of which at least one component contains a first metallic material which is less noble than aluminium,
Combination of two components requiring sealing wherein at least one of the components contains a first metallic material which is less noble than aluminium, and a gasket arranged between the two components and comprising at least one gasket layer incorporating a plate comprising a second metallic material which is nobler than the first metallic material, wherein the gasket layer comprises a sealing element which is arranged at an outer boundary region of the plate for sealingly contacting at least one sealing surface of at least one of said components in the installed state of the gasket, comprises an elastomer material and, in the installed state of the gasket, seals a gap between the gasket layer and said at least one component which contains the first metallic material in a substantially fluid-tight manner, wherein said plate projects laterally beyond said at least one sealing surface of at least one of said components in the installed state of the gasket.
A method of sealing between two components requiring sealing, of which at least one of the two components contains a first metallic material that is less noble than aluminium comprising arranging a gasket between the two components wherein the gasket comprises at least one gasket layer incorporating a plate comprising a second metallic material which is nobler than the first metallic material, wherein the gasket layer comprises a sealing element which is arranged at an outer boundary region of the plate to sealingly contact at least one sealing surface of at least one of said components in the installed state of the gasket, comprises an elastomer material and, in the installed state of the gasket, seals a gap between the gasket layer and said at least one component which contains the first metallic material in a substantially fluid-tight manner, wherein said plate projects laterally beyond said at least one sealing surface of at least one of said components in the installed state of the gasket.
A gasket that is adapted to be arranged between two components requiring sealing, said gasket comprising at least a first gasket layer and a second gasket layer each of which comprises a metallic plate, wherein the plate of the first gasket layer comprises an outer boundary region which projects laterally beyond an outer edge of the plate of the second gasket layer, and wherein a sealing element is arranged on the side of the outer boundary region facing the second layer, said sealing element comprising an elastomer material and, in the installed state of the gasket, sealing the gap between the first gasket layer and one of the components requiring sealing in a substantially fluid-tight manner.
Combination of two components requiring sealing wherein at least one of the components contains a metallic material which is less noble than aluminium, and a gasket arranged between the two components and comprising at least a first gasket layer and a second gasket layer each of which comprises a metallic plate, wherein the plate of the first gasket layer comprises an outer boundary region which projects laterally beyond an outer edge of the plate of the second gasket layer, and wherein a sealing element is arranged on the side of the outer boundary region facing the second layer, said sealing element comprising an elastomer material and, in the installed state of the gasket, sealing the gap between the first gasket layer and one of the components requiring sealing in a substantially fluid-tight manner.
A method of sealing between two components requiring sealing, of which at least one of the two components contains a metallic material that is less noble than aluminium, comprising arranging a gasket between the two components wherein the gasket comprises at least a first gasket layer and a second gasket layer each of which comprises a metallic plate, wherein the plate of the first gasket layer comprises an outer boundary region which projects laterally beyond an outer edge of the plate of the second gasket layer, and wherein a sealing element is arranged on the side of the outer boundary region facing the second layer, said sealing element comprising an elastomer material and, in the installed state of the gasket, sealing the gap between the first gasket layer and one of the components requiring sealing in a substantially fluid-tight manner.
A gasket adapted to be arranged between two components requiring sealing, of which at least one contains a first metallic material which is less noble than aluminium, comprising at least one gasket layer incorporating a plate comprising a second metallic material which is nobler than the first metallic material, wherein the gasket layer comprises a sealing element which is arranged at an outer boundary region of the plate, comprises an elastomer material and, in the installed state of the gasket, seals the gap between the gasket layer and the component which contains the first metallic material in a substantially fluid-tight manner and wherein the plate of the gasket layer is provided with at least one bead which comprises a coating containing an elastomer material, wherein the material of the coating is more difficult to deform by the effect of a compressive force than the material of the sealing element.
