This gasket seals the cylinder assembly, preventing air leakage between mating surfaces and maintaining compression integrity during pump operation. It is a single-piece accessory intended for service and maintenance applications. Technicians working on piston-type air compressors and vacuum pumps in industrial, HVAC, medical, and laboratory settings will find this part a standard consumable for scheduled rebuilds or leak repairs. The AF521 measures 3.31 inches in length and 3.31 inches in width, with a compressed thickness of 0.01 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis cylinder gasket fits Gast 56 Frame piston pump assemblies used across a range of light-duty compressed air and vacuum applications. These pumps are commonly found in industrial equipment, pneumatic control systems, and OEM machinery requiring low-volume air delivery. The AF521 is typically replaced during cylinder head service, after any piston or valve repair, or whenever signs of compression loss or air bypass are present at the cylinder mating surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCylinder gasket designed specifically for Gast 56 Frame piston pump platforms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact flat-profile design at 0.01 inches compressed thickness for precise sealing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3.31 inches x 3.31 inches footprint matches 56 Frame cylinder bore dimensions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold individually, allowing single-unit replacement without buying a full gasket kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for both compressed air and vacuum pump configurations in the 56 Frame series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with Gast 56 Frame piston pumps.

Depressurize and de-energize the pump fully before opening any cylinder or head hardware. Mating surfaces should be cleaned and inspected for scoring or corrosion before the new gasket is seated. Do not reuse a compressed or damaged gasket once removed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccessory Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cylinder Gasket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFor Use With\u003c\/strong\u003e: Gast 56 Frame Piston Pump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.31 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.31 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40151502\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: GAST\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: AF521\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GAST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51711633359154,"sku":"AF521","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e375cfce372e329518db94dcdb672863.jpg?v=1788477906","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gast-af521-cylinder-gasket-56-frame-piston-pump","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
