Product Description
The MATCO-NORCA gsffg2.5 is a 2-1/2 inch bolt gasket set made from red rubber, designed for use in flanged pipe connections in plumbing and mechanical systems. This gasket set provides a reliable seal at bolted flange joints, resisting leakage under normal service pressures. Red rubber gaskets are a widely accepted choice for water service, hydronic heating, and general plumbing applications. The set is installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters as part of routine flange assembly or replacement service work.
This gasket set is suited for residential and light commercial flanged piping applications where 2-1/2 inch connections are used. Typical installations include flanged shutoff valves, pump flanges, and pipe unions in water supply and hydronic systems. The red rubber compound offers flexibility and compression recovery appropriate for standard water service environments.

Installation Notes
Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before disassembling any flanged joint. Clean flange faces thoroughly before seating the new gasket to ensure an even, leak-free compression seal. Tighten flange bolts in a cross pattern to achieve uniform gasket compression, following applicable IPC or local plumbing code guidelines.
