Overview
The Victaulic LPC R20 gasket is a precision-engineered elastomer seal designed for 10″ (273.0 mm) O.D. pipe applications. This coupling gasket combines EPDM and Nitrile compounds to provide a reliable, pressure-responsive seal suitable for hydraulic, pneumatic, and general plumbing systems. Victaulic gaskets are engineered to create leak-tight connections when installed with compatible grooved pipe couplings, with the seal performance enhancing as the coupling housing is tightened.
