GOST 30778-2001 PDF

Full title and description

GOST 30778-2001 — "Прокладки уплотняющие из эластомерных материалов для оконных и дверных блоков. Технические условия" (English title: "Rubber compression-types for windows and doors. Specifications"). The standard defines technical requirements for extruded elastomer sealing gaskets used in window and door units and related transparent constructions.

Abstract

This interstate standard specifies classification, material groups, dimensional and performance requirements, methods of sampling and testing, marking and acceptance criteria for rubber and elastomeric sealing gaskets (non‑self‑adhesive, extruded types) intended for sealing window and door profiles, insulating glass unit joints and similar building joinery. It is intended to ensure interchangeability, durability and climatic performance of sealing profiles used in building fenestration.

Scope

The standard applies to monolithic elastomeric sealing gaskets produced by extrusion and intended for sealing various types of window and door blocks, for sealing the joints of insulating glass units and other light‑transmitting constructions. The requirements explicitly exclude self‑adhesive sealing tapes. It covers material classification, operating temperature ranges, hardness classes, dimensional and performance tests, and marking/packaging rules for commercially supplied extruded seals.

Key topics and requirements

• Classification of seals by base polymer (EPDM / EPM, VMQ silicone, CR chloroprene, TPE thermoplastic elastomers) and by intended profile application (wood, PVC, aluminum, special constructions).
• Designations of hardness groups (Shore A ranges) and subdivisions used for selection and quality control.
• Operating temperature ranges by material group (examples: EPDM variants approx. −50 to +80 °C; VMQ silicone approx. −60 to +80 °C; CR and TPE groups with their respective ranges).
• Dimensional tolerances for extruded profiles, sampling plans, laboratory test methods (mechanical, aging, ozone/UV and climatic resistance) and acceptance criteria.
• Marking, packaging and information to accompany batches (designation, material code, hardness, profile type, manufacturer/lot).

Typical use and users

Manufacturers of extruded rubber and elastomer sealing profiles, window and door fabricators, glazing and insulating glass unit (IGU) producers, QA/QC laboratories, certification bodies and procurement/specification engineers in the construction and building‑products sectors use this standard to select, test and accept sealing gaskets for fenestration systems. Installers and building envelope designers consult it for material selection and compatibility with profile systems.

Related standards

GOST 30778-2001 is used alongside related normative documents covering elastomer nomenclature and properties (for example ГОСТ 28860 series for rubbers and latexes), standards on insulating glass units and aging tests (e.g., GOST 30779-2001) and product‑specific technical specifications (TU) and testing methods referenced within the standard. It is typically cross‑referenced in regional building regulations and window/door product standards.
