About Us

agpressAutomated Gasket was established in St. Louis, MO and has been die cutting gaskets for almost 44 years. Since its inception in 1967, the Company has always put the customers first. The founder, Paul Bruce, ran his Company by one basic principle, "Small agshelvesCompany - Personal Service".

The Company grew from humble beginnings during the 1960's. Fueled by increasing demand from a national customer base, AG was continuously adding tooling, equipment, and inventory coupled with efficient production principles. The goal was to provide customers with high quality products at competitive pricing. It was this mission that allowed AG to grow into one of the nation's top gasket fabricators.

The Company was a pioneer in the industry and developed many processes that have been adopted by fabricators everywhere. In 1992, the Company received its first patent for a method and apparatus for slitting and separating a wide roll of gasket material of varying thicknesses into narrower rolls of uniform thicknesses.

Along with its patents and process improvement efforts, the Company was actively involved in promoting the gasket industry. AG was a founding corporate member of the Gasket Fabricators Association, which is the premier gasketing trade association in the nation. It has also received numerous awards for quality and safety.

Today, the Company continues its history of success. AG specializes in close tolerance, intricate parts fabricated from sheet and rollstock materials. We service OEMs, rebuilders, and end-user customers across multiple industries including health & medical, aerospace & military, electrical, HVAC, automotive & small engine, industrial, food & beverage, agricultural & milling, consumer products, material handling & processing, mining, oil & energy, chemical, appliance, and marine.
