The invention described herein is a shaped seal or gasket for use with a screw cap as commonly used in chemical barrels. The shaped gasket has a profile that includes a winged portion for contacting a sealing surface. The winged portion of the gasket defines a concave surface. The gasket has a second surface, or zone of contact, for contacting against a second surface, such as the underside of a screw cap. The winged portion of the gasket profile is wider than the zone of contact. The gasket profile can take on many different configurations, as shown in the drawings.
