Double-<a href="http://www.shield-sealing.com/Metal-Jacket-Gasket-185.html" title="Metal Jacket Gasket">Metal Jacket Gasket</a> are another combination of filler material and metallic materials. In this application, a tube with ends that resemble a "C" is made of the metal with an additional piece made to fit inside of the "C" making the tube thickest at the meeting points. The filler is pumped between the shell and piece. When in use the compressed gasket has a larger amount of metal at the two tips where contact is made (due to the shell/piece interaction) and these two places bear the burden of sealing the process. Since all that is needed is a shell and piece, these gaskets can be made from almost any material that can be made into a sheet and a filler can then be inserted. This is an effective option for most applications.

It closes in the top of the cylinder, forming the combustion chamber. This joint is sealed by a head gasket. The head gasket is called Cylinder Head Gasket
<a href="http://www.shield-sealing.com/Spiral-Wound-Gasket-Seal-Packing-c24.html" title="Spiral Wound Gasket">Spiral Wound Gasket</a> are also used in high pressure pipelines and are made with stainless steel outer and inner rings and a center filled with spirally wound stainless steel tape wound together with graphite and Teflon, formed in V shape. Internal pressure acts upon the faces of the V, forcing the gasket to seal against the flange faces.
