This [Enclosure Institute™](https://marianinc.com/enclosure-institute/) article breaks down five core tests engineers can use to validate long-term gasket reliability: [compression set](https://blog.marianinc.com/blog/compression-set), stress relaxation, thermal cycling, chemical resistance, and IP ingress protection.

Many of these products are made for use in conditions where they may be exposed to extreme temperatures, rain, wind, dust, and moisture. (*See application story about "smart" shipping pallets linked at the bottom of this post.*) Designing such products requires that the container or enclosure holding the electronic components be completely sealed. Exposure to harsh elements could cause a product failure.
