MARKET ANALYSIS

A form-in-place gasket is made by dispensing a liquid gasket onto a metal/plastic part before assembly. Form-in-place gaskets are used in various industries due to their precision and durability. They offer a highly reliable seal that stays resistant to freezing, heat, UV, and corrosion. Major advantages of using form-in-place gaskets are their adaptability across a variety of conditions and the ability to produce intricate details. Different materials are used to make form-in-place gaskets. Conductive or non-conductive material is selected depending on the use of the gasket. Electronics, medical, defense & military, aerospace, and mass transportation are among the industries using form-in-place gaskets. In medical devices, form-in-place gaskets are used in ventilators, oxygenators, and dialysis machines.

Major factors driving the growth of the form-in-place gasket market are the high demand for form-in-place gaskets from the automotive industry and the growing oil & gas industry. Form-in-place gaskets are commonly used in engine applications to create seals between engine components. Electric and hybrid vehicles often use form-in-place gaskets to seal battery enclosures, thereby maintaining the safety and integrity of the battery system. The ability of form-in-place gaskets to be customized according to specific shapes and sizes makes them suitable for various custom sealing applications in the automotive industry. Further, the adoption of form-in-place gaskets in aerospace applications is expected to offer lucrative opportunities for market growth during the forecast period.

GROWTH DRIVERS AND CHALLENGES

Form-in-place gaskets are commonly used in engine applications to create seals between engine components. They are employed in areas such as cylinder heads, valve covers, and oil pans to prevent leaks and ensure the proper functioning of the engine. In addition, form-in-place gaskets are applied in the sealing of electronic control units and protecting sensitive electronic components from environmental factors, including moisture and contaminants. Further, form-in-place gaskets are used to seal flanges in pipelines and equipment within the oil and gas infrastructure. The gaskets provide a secure and leak-resistant seal between connected flanges, preventing the escape of fluids and gases. In oil and gas wellheads, where pressure and temperature conditions can be extreme, form-in-place gaskets are used to seal critical connections. During the construction and maintenance of pipelines, form-in-place gaskets are used to seal the connections between pipeline segments. However, some common alternative solutions to form-in-place gaskets are pre-formed rubber gaskets. These gaskets are manufactured in predetermined shapes and sizes, providing a convenient and standardized sealing solution. O-rings are circular elastomeric seals effective in dynamic sealing applications. Gasket sheets and cut gaskets are made of compressed fiber or rubber and are commonly used for static sealing applications where precision and customization may be less critical.
