Overview
Our Custom LSR Shower Head Nozzle Gasket is engineered for reliable, long-lasting sealing in residential and commercial shower fixtures. Manufactured using precision silicone compression molding and LSR injection molding, these gaskets deliver excellent compression set resistance, wide temperature tolerance, and chemical durability against chlorinated water and common cleaning agents. Designed for anti-clog nozzle interfaces and water-saving systems, the gaskets maintain consistent spray performance while preventing leaks, scale build-up, and backflow. Full OEM support is available for geometry, hardness, color, and branding to match any nozzle or trim design.

Key Benefits
- Leak-Proof Sealing: Precision molded LSR offers low compression set and consistent sealing force for long-term leak resistance.
- Chlorine & Chemical Resistance: Formulated for durability in treated water and resistance to common cleaners and soap residues.
- Water-Saving Compatible: Optimized cross-sections maintain reliable spray patterns in low-flow and aerated nozzle designs.
- Anti-Scale & Anti-Clog Options: Micro-texture and material options reduce mineral buildup and improve nozzle longevity.
- Design Flexibility: Support for integrated snap features, multi-lip seals, undercuts, and color coding or embossed logos.
- Tight Dimensional Control: In-house tooling and process control deliver repeatable fits for automated assembly lines.
Quality Assurance
Quality for our LSR shower gaskets is enforced through incoming-material verification, controlled molding parameters, and finished-part validation. Raw LSR batches are tested for durometer, tensile strength, and extractables; in-process controls monitor mold temperature, shot weight, and cure cycles. Finished parts undergo dimensional inspection (CMM/3D optical), compression-set and aging tests, pressure/leak testing, chlorine-exposure and thermal cycling, plus visual surface checks. Batch traceability and first-article reports are provided for OEM orders to ensure consistent quality and regulatory compliance.
