Among his latest patents, Gallo has developed a "Reinforced Core Heavy Duty Gasket." This gasket features two outer facing layers positioned on either side of a central metal shim, with a perforated core situated between them. The design allows for variations in the thickness of the metal shim to control the overall thickness of the gasket. In one embodiment, the core is secured to the shim using a thermosetting adhesive, and tangs extend into a facing layer to clinch the core and facing layer together. Alternatively, mechanical fasteners such as eyelets can be used, provided a sealing medium is placed between the cores and the shim.
