How Were Asbestos Gaskets Used?

Gaskets cut from asbestos head gasketpackaging are used in various factories, refineries, and power plants. Engineers believe that asbestos mixed with fibrous filler is the ideal material for sealing any mechanical system that involves the transport of hot gases, oil, steam, acids, or other chemicals. Asbestos gaskets are used in engines and heavy industry to make tight seals between pipes or machine parts. Components that are sealed with asbestos gaskets include pipes, pumps, compressors, valves, boilers, engine cylinder heads, heat exchangers, and condensers.

Abatement and History of Asbestos Gaskets

When removing old gasket asbestos sheetpacking from pipes and machinery, abatement workers must follow the following points: gaskets should be removed intact whenever possible. Gaskets that are deteriorated need to be removed within a glove bag. Gaskets must be immediately placed in a disposal container. All scraping needs to be performed wet. In addition to adhering to the requirements mentioned above, it is important that any worker handling asbestos wear the appropriate protective gear. Workers should wear an air-purifying half-mask respirator and adequate work suit. Once work is completed, work suits must be vacuumed with a HEPA vacuum, and the employee should shower in a designated decontamination area.

As public awareness of asbestos-related diseases broadened in the 1970s and 1980s, American manufacturers gradually phased out the use of asbestos in gasket products.
