Metal bead gaskets
Metal bead gaskets
Material profile
Sheets coated with elastomers in the coil process or bright metal sheets are processed into high-quality metal bead gaskets using the progressive die method.
- For narrow gasket widths
- Even with low surface pressure
- Practically no setting – creates a permanent seal
Macro adjustment to the sealing surfaces takes place by means of preformed beads in novaform® GB. Micro range sealing additionally occurs through a special elastomer coating applied to the metal substrate. This combination of different materials guarantees that the joint is permanently tight – also with extremely low connecting forces – even if the sealing point is subject to extreme temperatures or frequently changing loads.
Other non-ferrous metals such as copper possible on request.

Applications
novaform® GBC is a group of punched or laser-cut metal bead gaskets in various thicknesses made from commercially available stainless steels with or without a coating.
