Abstract

A method of assembling a slant plate type compressor includes forming gaskets. The method includes forming gaskets in a plurality of at least five different thicknesses such that two thinner types of gasket have steel cores and the three thicker types of gaskets have aluminum cores. All five of the gasket thicknesses are given essentially the same compressibility by embossing the periphery of the gaskets with an identical embossment tool such as to give each gasket an embossment having the same height and width.
