Industry Overview
Gasket is a mechanical seal that are used to fill the space between two or more than two mating surfaces. It is used to prevent leakage from the joined objects when they are under compression. It is commonly produced from sheet materials by cutting. Gaskets are generally made from flat materials which include a sheet, from rubber, paper, silicone, cork, felt, metal, nitrile rubber, fiberglass, and others. The industrial gaskets market is anticipated to register a good growth during the forecast period. This is attributed to its wide application in different end-user industries including power, oil and gas, chemicals, and others.
Market Segmentation
Insight by Material
On the basis of material, the industrial gaskets market is classified into semi-metallic, non-metallic, and metallic. Of all these, semi-metallic material category is expected to dominate the market in the coming years. Semi-metallic gaskets are utilized by various end-user industries, as off the assembly they provide enhanced tightness with low overall load as compared to other type of gaskets. However, during the forecast period, non-metallic material category is anticipated to grow at the highest CAGR.
Insight by Product Type
Based on product type, the industrial gaskets market is categorized into soft gasket, spiral wound gasket, and ring joint gasket. Soft gaskets are the most dominant product type category, as it is the most preferred product type in various end-user industries which includes processing industry and others. This is attributed to the low-cost advantage it offers as compared to other gaskets.
Insight by End-User
On the basis of end-user, the industrial gaskets market is segmented into refineries, power generation, chemical processing, and others. The refineries end-user segment is anticipated to hold the largest share in the market in the coming years. This segment is projected to register the fastest growth in the market. This is attributed to the growth of the commercial application and increasing use of these gaskets in high temperature and pressure applications in refineries.
