Installing Spot-Glued Gaskets

Spot gluing of Elastomeric gaskets is covered under

Tranter’s U.S. Patent #5070939.

In the following procedure, after the glue is applied to the plate

at the appropriate spots, allow it to set for a minimum of 30 sec

before the gasket is mounted. Work on pairs of plates to allow

for this curing time. Work in a well-ventilated area.

1. Clean the gasket groove in one plate with a rag moistened

with Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK).

2. Apply a 1/8 in. diameter spot of Pliobond 30 approximately

every 4 in. centered in the gasket groove of the plate just

cleaned.

a) Apply the glue so there are no thin spots.

b) Apply spots of glue at the “T” joints (see Figure 44).

3. Clean the groove of a second plate, as in step 1.

4. Apply adhesive to the second plate, as in step 2.

5. Install the gasket on the ﬁ rst plate. Make sure the gasket is

oriented as shown in Figures 15 and 32.

6. Install the gasket on the second plate, as in step 5.

7. Compress the gasket by placing the plate under a weighted

sheet of wood. The longer the compression time, the better

the bond. Twelve hours cure time at room temperature

(70°F) should be allowed to assure maximum adhesion of the

gasket to the plate for all elastomers except EPDM. EPDM

gaskets require a minimum of 24 hr cure time at room

temperature (70°F) to assure an adequate bond. (When

several plates are being gasketed, they can be stacked on top

of each other with the weighted wood sheet placed on the

top plate of the stack.)

NOTE: Refer to page 24 when using mixed gaskets.

NOTE: The purpose of working with two plates

simultaneously is to allow the adhesive to set for

a minimum of 30 sec before the gasket is applied.

When working with small plates, a third plate can be

incorporated into the above procedure to obtain set

time. The curing time must not exceed 3 min.

8. After adequate compression time, use solvent to remove any

excess adhesive that may have seeped-out past the edges of

the gasket.

9. Reinstall plate(s) in unit insuring that the gasket surface

and the sealing surface of the plate ahead are wiped clean to

provide a positive seal.
