gasketed

Made leak-proof now

Gasketed describes something fitted with a gasket—a seal or ring of rubber, metal, or other material placed between two surfaces to prevent leakage of fluids or gases.

Engine parts, pipe fittings, and container lids are often gasketed: The gasketed lid keeps the container airtight.

The term appears mainly in technical and manufacturing contexts.
