Gaskets, Rubber & Sealing Products

Gaskets, seals, sheet rubber, custom rubber products, expansion joints, fan connectors, and military-specification materials for industrial, marine, and defense applications throughout Hampton Roads.

B&B Hose and Rubber Co. is a full-line Garlock certified stocking distributor. We stock commercial and Mil-Spec gasket materials, sheet rubber, expansion joints, and sealing products — and can cut custom gaskets from a sample, drawing, or dimensions.

From a single replacement gasket to production quantities, our team can help identify the proper material for the fluid, temperature, pressure, environment, and equipment involved.

Need Help Choosing a Gasket or Rubber Material?

Send us a drawing, bring us a sample, or tell us about the application. Our team will help identify the correct gasket style, rubber compound, thickness, size, and fabrication method.

For the best recommendation, provide the fluid or media, temperature, pressure, flange or equipment type, dimensions, required specification, quantity, and certification requirements.

Final gasket and sealing-material selection must be based on the complete application. Chemical compatibility, temperature, pressure, flange design, surface condition, bolt load, material specification, thickness, hardness, and applicable standards must be verified before installation. Mil-Spec and certified products require confirmation of the complete specification and revision.
