Abstract

This invention relates to a gasket for a plate heat exchanger which gasket has several projections for securing the gasket to a heat exchanger plate. Said projections protrude towards an edge of the plate along which the gasket extends. According to the invention the gasket projections (2; 10, 11; 14; 20) cooperate with holding parts (2A, 3, 4; 12, 13; 15; 21), each comprising at least one projection (3, 4; 13; 16a, c) that is directed to the gasket (1) and is positioned at a distance from the gasket projection (2; 10, 11; 14; 20) seen in the longitudinal direction of the gasket.
