ABSTRACT:
A sectional gasket assembly and method of making same from at least two elongated gasket sections. Each gasket section has a first connecting element at one end and a second connecting element at the second end. The first end has a first button and a first opening of a given configuration and serving as the first connecting element. The second end has a second button and a second opening of the same configuration serving as the second connecting element. The first end is adapted to be juxtaposed and sealingly mated with an end of a second elongated gasket section to provide a sealed joint thereat. Each juxtaposed opening and button is press-fit to enhance the seal. When the buttons and openings at each end of the gasket section are formed on the same surface of the gasket section, pairs of first openings and buttons may be juxtaposed in complementary fashion, and when the gasket sections are curved or L-shaped, plural pairs of joined gasket sections may be assembled to form an annular gasket assembly.
