Graphite Gasket Joining Tape, 2" x 3" PSA Strip

Finish rope gasket ends and tadpole gasket corners with this pre-cut graphite gasket joining tape strip. The pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) backing helps hold the strip in place while you prepare a clean, controlled gasket joint for a stove, fireplace, or heating-appliance repair.

Why it helps

• Pre-cut 2" x 3" strip: Convenient for individual gasket ends, seams, and corners without buying a full roll.
• Approximately 1/32" thick: Helps minimize bulk at the finished joint.
• Graphite finish: Blends with common graphite-treated and dark-colored gasket materials.
• PSA backing: Helps position and secure the strip during gasket fabrication and installation.
• Helps control fraying: Wrap the strip around a freshly cut woven rope gasket end to help contain loose fibers.

Common applications

• Finishing cut rope gasket ends
• Joining or securing tadpole gasket at corners and transitions
• Preparing gasket seams around compatible stove or fireplace glass
• Custom-cut rope and tadpole gasket fabrication

How to use

Cut the gasket to the required length, then position the strip over the cut end or gasket joint. Wrap and press firmly so the PSA backing adheres. Trim the strip if needed for a neat finish. When working with tadpole gasket around glass, keep the bulb and flat-tail orientation correct and verify that the gasket stays positioned before installing the assembly.

Important: This is a joining and finishing accessory, not a replacement for the primary rope, tape, or tadpole gasket. The PSA backing assists with positioning and securing the strip, while final gasket retention depends on the appliance frame, glass retainers, clips, channels, hardware, and other components in the original assembly. Always follow the appliance manufacturer's instructions when replacing fireplace or stove glass and gasket materials.
