GASKETS.

We have handed to you two gaskets :-

1 Klingerite "1000".
1 Reinz special

Will you please tell us all you can about the construction of these two gaskets.

We are of the opinion that the Reinz special can stand higher pressures, and will be interested to know if you can account for this through their different construction.
