We manufacture custom nylon gaskets for industrial OEMs, gasket distributors, and fabricators across the United States, working from your prints, CAD files, or sample parts to produce finished parts that meet your specifications.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With production capabilities that scale from a single prototype to high-volume runs, we support both maintenance-driven replacement orders and ongoing OEM supply programs.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Why Choose Nylon for Your Gasket Application?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nylon (polyamide) is one of the most versatile engineering thermoplastics used in industrial sealing. A nylon gasket performs well in environments where rubber or softer plastics cannot hold their shape under load. Key performance characteristics include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>High Mechanical Strength<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Nylon resists deformation under compression, making it suitable for dynamic sealing and bolted joints that experience repeated cycling.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Excellent Wear and Abrasion Resistance<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Nylon holds up against friction in moving assemblies and high-contact surfaces.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Chemical Compatibility<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Nylon resists oils, fuels, hydraulic fluids, and many solvents commonly found in industrial process lines.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Wide Service Temperature Range<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Standard nylon grades operate reliably from roughly -40\u00b0F up to 250\u00b0F, with specialty grades extending that range.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Low Coefficient of Friction<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Nylon performs well in applications where the gasket may shift slightly during assembly or operation.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Electrical Insulation<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Nylon is nonconductive, making it a practical choice for electrical enclosures and panel sealing.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For applications that require a softer, more conformable seal, you may want to compare nylon against our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/cincinnatigasket.com\/industrial\/plastic-gaskets\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PTFE plastic gaskets<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/cincinnatigasket.com\/industrial\/rubber-gaskets\/neoprene-rubber\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> neoprene rubber gaskets<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Common Applications for Nylon Gaskets<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">OEMs and fabricators specify nylon gasket sheet and finished parts for:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pumps, compressors, and fluid-handling equipment<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hydraulic and pneumatic assemblies<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Electrical housings, panels, and junction boxes<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Automotive and heavy equipment components<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Food processing machinery (with appropriate FDA-compliant grades)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Industrial machinery with bolted flanges or covers<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bushings, washers, and spacer applications where a gasket also serves as a wear surface<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>Custom Nylon Gasket Manufacturing Capabilities<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CGIM LLC operates a 65,000+ square foot facility with the equipment to handle prototype quantities through full production runs.
