You just want the gasket? Not the whole "mermite" can, right? I'll have to run down my supply buddies and ask.
Sincerely,

An internet search came up empty which is why I'm going to ask my buds. They might know of a source.

I was surprised to find that people are mounting these in pairs on motorcycles as saddlebags! Frankly, I'm glad I haven't had to eat or serve out of one (although it did almost always beat C-Rats or the early MREs).
Sincerely,

Hobie

Yep I ran into the same thing...Found NSN# after about an hour of searches...Once I finally got the NSN I found a place, http://www.armyproperty.com/ that has them ...I went to register but was stumped on the first required feild..Rank! LOL...Thanks for this help Hobie, I'll keep sniffing around too..

In Basic Training..I really appreciated a cold juice break during the day delivered from a Mermite...
The one I have with no gasket ..I used for a long time to keep my welding rods warm and dry when away from the shop..

If it's an "O" ring type gasket a large industrial supply house should be able to help.

You might be able to fabricate one from closed cell rubber weather stripping. I bet you could find a roll the correct thickness and width that you could cut 4 pieces, and silicone seal it to either the lid or the base. Or get some that already has adhesive.
