Paraflow Plate Heat Exchanger Instruction Manual Figure 27 Attachment of EasyClip Gaskets Non-glued Easyclip gaskets are an alternative to glued in gaskets that greatly simplifies on site regasketing. During fixing the gasket a pressure is applied, which expands 2 tongues into 2 slots in the plate. This barbed effect (fish hook) secures the gasket to the plate, in fact it now takes more force to remove the gasket than to apply it.
