Abstract: The invention concerns a joint comprising a flat metal core made of soft steel, coated on each of its surfaces with a layer of elastomer bound by constituents ensuring its adherence on the metal, the thickness of the elastomer varying on the joint surface, depending on the shape of the parts between which the joint is designed to be mounted and the sealing requirements at each point on the joint surface, the elastomer being cold deposited on each joint surface, then the whole assembly being placed in a heated mould, for forming the elastomer before vulcanisation.

Abstract: This gasket comprises two superimposed similar metal plates, each of which comprises a central main part and a peripheral part which are separated from one another by a slot intended to house a bead of sealing elastomer, the two parts of each plate being locally connected by bridges, the coincident slots of the two superimposed metal plates being lined with one and the same bead of sealing elastomer protruding from both sides of the gasket, and means for laterally immobilizing the two metal plates.
