Gaskets and Seals Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Type (Gaskets (Metallic, Non-Metallic, Composite) Seals (Mechanical Seals , O-ring Seal, Valve Stem Seal, Rotatory & Swivel Seal, Shaft Seal), By Application (Automotive, Electrical & Electronics, Industrial & Manufacturing, Aerospace, Marine & rail, Oil & Gas, Others) and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

Gasket is used to retain seal which connect two components or surfaces. This seal aims to provide full physical barrier for any potential leakage. Gaskets are usually made from sheet materials. Gaskets are majorly made to have properties such as impermeability, temperature and pressure resistance. These properties make it a high demanding in the market due to various applications such in automotive, electrical & electronics, industrial & manufacturing and others. The major application of gaskets & seals is to contain pressure while also prevent contamination from outside particles, they ensure high performance and safety involving fluid or gas systems operating under pressure. On the basis of type, gaskets and seals market is segmented into gaskets & seals. 

Gaskets are further sub segmented into metallic, Non-metallic, and composites and seals are further sub segmented into mechanical seal, O-ring seal, valve stem seal, rotatory & swivel seal, and shaft seal. Metallic gaskets are largest segment in the market due to metals have higher surface sealing quality and are used in heat exchangers, condensers, pumps, compressors, turbines, and valves.

On the basis of application, gaskets & seals are segmented into automotive, electrical & electronics, industrial & manufacturing, aerospace, marine & rail, oil & gas, and others. Automotive is the largest segment for gaskets and seals due to several use in manufacturing of automobile such as engine block and powertrains. Electrical & electronics is expected to be the fastest growing market during the forecast period due to increasing demand for electronics and technological advancement.
