Gasket Compounds
Do not apply gasket compounds, adhesives, or anti-stick lubricants to the gasket surface.  These compounds may reduce gasket stress leading to excessive creep relaxation and possible gasket failure. 

Selecting a Gasket Material  
There are many factors to consider when selecting a gasket material.  Please provide temperature/ pressure range and chemicals involved in the application.

Low Temperature Applications
The gasket must be dry and without oil or adhesive when installed and should be stored in a dry atmosphere since the fibers absorb moisture from the air.

The gasket should not be subjected to severe thermal expansions at the joint assembly.

The required flange loading must be applied at ambient temperature and must not fall below the required minimum value over the whole range of service temperature.
