Les termes «seal» et «gasket» sont souvent utilisés comme de parfaits synonymes. Néanmoins, il semble d'usage de plus en plus courant d'utiliser le mot «gasket» en parlant du dispositif assurant l'étanchéité statique d'un assemblage et de réserver un troisième terme, soit «packing», à la dénomination de celui en assurant l'étanchéité dynamique. Le mot «seal» peut donc être considéré à la fois comme générique et comme spécifique. 3, record 6, French, - joint%20d%27%C3%A9tanch%C3%A9it%C3%A9
