How a Photo Becomes a Perfect-Fit Gasket

Got an old gasket but no drawing? No problem. At Derby Gaskets, we specialise in creating custom gaskets from photos or physical samples. Whether you’re replacing a discontinued part, repairing older equipment, or just need a one-off solution fast, we’ve made the process as simple and accurate as possible.

Here’s how we turn your photo into a perfect-fit gasket — quickly, professionally, and with no fuss.

Bring Us Your Gasket

Step 1:

Bring Us Your Gasket

Pop into our Derby trade counter with your original gasket – even if it’s damaged or worn. If you can’t visit in person, just email us a clear photo with some basic dimensions. That’s all we need to get started.

We Digitise and Design

We Digitise and Design

Using specialist software and scanning equipment, we’ll convert your sample or photo into a precise digital cutting file. This means we can recreate the exact size, shape, and hole positions – even if the original is no longer available.

Cut In-House with Precision

Step 3:

Cut In-House with Precision

Once the design is complete, we cut your gasket using our in-house machinery, including water jet cutters, slitting machines, and presses up to 60 tonnes. Because we do everything on site, we can offer fast turnaround and complete control over quality.

Fit, Finish, and Deliver

Fit, Finish, and Deliver

Your new gasket is cut to spec and ready to go. Whether you collect it, arrange delivery, or need a repeat order later, we’ve got your file saved and ready to use again.
