Theseinclude low-closure forceseals, large diameter profiles that cannot be molded, orrequirements for hollow O-rings, non- standard solid O-rings, and otherextruded profiles with aninside diameter larger than 1.500” (38.1mm).” All TechSeal extruded and spliced partsare “Hot Vulcanized,” and provide the designer with atremendous amount of flexibility and can be attached/ assembled into grooves or onto flat surfaces. ParFab products contained in this brochure or any custom extruded profile can be supplied as:

• Spliced Rings (Hollow and Solid) ? 4-corner PSA-backed spliced “picture frame” gaskets ? Custom fabricated gaskets ? Cut-to-length product ? Bulk cord with or without PSA - coiled or spooled
