Gasket stock is disclosed having a rectangular metal core that is readily bendable in one direction and a deformable rubberized jacket coextruded with and encasing the metal core. A method of fabricating the gasket stock through a coextrusion process is disclosed. A method also is disclosed for forming a press-in-place gasket with the method including obtaining bendable gasket stock, incrementally advancing the gasket stock to predetermined positions in a bender, and bending the gasket stock at the predetermined positions along its length to form a desired shape of the press-in-place gasket. The bender is controlled by a computer to form the shape of the gasket according to a CAD or other electronic file. Finally, a method of supplying press-in-place gaskets and accommodating design changes of such gaskets is disclosed.
