Gaskets are made from a cut of sheet materials. Mechanical seals are used to fill a space between two joining surfaces. The purpose is to prevent any leakages that might occur to the joined surfaces while they undergo compression.

Gaskets used for applications such as high-pressure steam systems may use asbestos, which is considered a health hazard. Asbestos is put to use when the need arises. It is recommended that gaskets be made using materials with some degree of yielding.
