Gasket: Sealing and Damping in Speaker Installation

Due to their low cost, low complexity in production, and adaptability, plastic gaskets have a universal application in speaker manufacturing. As an example, plastics such as PVC, polyethylene, or nylon can be used to manufacture gaskets which offer different functionalities. Often, gaskets made from nylon plastic are lightweight and provide protection from a chemical attack. This is ideal, as speakers are often subjected to common substances. Furthermore, they provide sufficient flexibility to adaptable irregular shapes to form a protective barrier against air leakage and unwanted vibration reduction. In addition, gaskets made from plastic materials can be altered with ease in contour, dimension, and even thickness in accordance to speaker design specifications. This fomentar la producción en masa, pero al mismo tiempo provee un rendimiento aceptable para la mayoria de las aplicaciones por el bajo precio.
