How to Choose the Right Sealing Material

Choosing between rubber, plastic, and metal sealing solutions depends on your operating environment, performance requirements, and regulatory needs. While many applications overlap, each material category excels in different conditions.

You may want to consider:

  • Operating temperature and pressure
  • Exposure to chemicals, fluids, or abrasion
  • Required flexibility or rigidity
  • Tolerance for wear, vibration, or movement
  • Industry or regulatory requirements (such as NSF 51 or NSF 61)

North Coast Seal works with OEMs early in the process to evaluate these factors and guide material selection—whether you need rubber gaskets, engineered plastic components, metal seals, or application-specific products like PTFE thread seal tape for fluid systems—across prototyping, production, or long-term supply programs.
