Anyone know the difference between these two gaskets?


 
I've been trying to seal up my WSM 18 and I had a short notice cook to do so I when looking at gaskets I ordered a roll of nomex gasket material with adhesive backing b/c it had fast shipping time. Here's a link to the product. It went on fine and seems to work so far.

Does anyone know if the WSM specific gasket kit from BBQgaskets.com is essentially the same stuff (though it looks like it doesn't have an adhesive already applied)? Does it "fit" any different?

I kind of messed up a small part by the lid and wondering whether I should just order more of what I already purchased or now that I'm not racing against time, order from bbqgaskets.com.
 
All I can tell you is that I have the BBQGaskets product. It comes with a tube of the required hi temp silicon adhesive and I have had it on my WSM22 for about three years and it is still going strong. Love the stuff. The key is this, if it works for you, go with it.
 
I used the self-adhesive (peel strip) and it seems to be fine.
No messing with silicone as a separate step.
Peel and stick....done.
