Appliance Gaskets
Oven, cooker and dishwasher gaskets rated for steam, detergent and years of door cycles.
Application Overview
Appliance door gaskets face 100,000+ door cycles, steam blasts and aggressive detergents. We produce molded-corner and continuous-extrusion gaskets in steam-stable silicone, engineered for the exact door compression of your cabinet. White and cosmetic colors stay stable without yellowing through dishwasher cycles.
Technical Standards
- ✓Steam stability at 130 °C saturated steam validated (select compounds)
- ✓Detergent / dishwasher cycle compatibility tested (100+ cycles)
- ✓EU 1935/2004 and LFGB for food-zone contact parts
- ✓Door-cycle fatigue 100,000+ validated per design
Manufacturing Process
Gaskets are extrusion cured with molded corners spliced in — or fully molded for complex profiles.
- Molded corners remove the leak path of glued joints
- Profile geometry tuned to door compression spec
- Anti-slip fins and clip channels co-extruded
- Yellowing-resistant compounds for white cosmetics
Quality Inspection
- 🔍100% visual inspection (flash, short-shot, contamination) before packing
- 🔍Dimensional verification against approved drawing; FAI report on first shipment and after any tooling change
