This is NOMEX???

PineyWoodsBrewer

The customer service fellow at BGE assured me that the all white gasket is the NOMEX gasket. I have seen images of NOMEX that seem to be almost a braided type gasket. This gasket appears to me to be the basic felt gasket. However the fellow at BGE was borderline rude in assuring me that this is the NOMEX material.
Can someone verify that he is correct?

It's nomex. You will like it provided the adhesive strip stays on - mine didn't but no complaints here. I just reinstalled with 3M 77.

The braided gaskets you have seen are rutland gaskets.

Thanks.... I guess I was just skeptical because of the way the fellow responded on the phone.

I bought a can of the 3M 77 adhesive spray. Weather permitting, I plan to put it on tomorrow.

Yall take care...

Thanks.... I'm all about having pictures to help me. Goes back to my youth when I used to throw away the instructions and try to assemble based on the picture on the box. I usually had better luck doing that than trying to follow the directions.
