Sealing Gasket
The gasket included with the VRC provides a sealing layer between the mounting surface and the reader/cover to
help ensure a sealed vandal-proof installation. The gasket is provided in two distinct pieces, allowing for easy
alignment with the hardware and mounting holes. The smaller inner piece is shaped to fit the reader, while the
larger outer piece is shaped to fit the vandal resistant cover. The adhesive side of the gasket may be applied to
either the mounting surface or the hardware, to suit installation conditions and preference.
