The elastomeric compound for fluid motion, vibration isolation, or other uses is defined by system pressure, chemical compatibility, temperature, and friction considerations for single or double acting seals.The differentiating requirement is the direction of the pressure.Single-acting sealing takes pressure from one side only and takes place between fixed components, while double-acting sealing takes pressure from both sides and fixes parts that are in relative motion.Stem seals distributed by Seals-Shop are available as Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) based energized O-rings and Polyurethane (PU) U-Cups, all models are from Trelleborg Sealing Solutions.The design and material focus on low friction, compact form and easy installation for various applications.Turcon, a PTFE-based protected sealing material, is compatible with almost all chemicals, making it suitable for use in equipment where the seal is likely to be exposed to more demanding media.These materials have excellent low-friction and self-lubricating characteristics for dynamic and rotating applications.Low friction reduces power loss while position accuracy and control are improved by eliminating movement and sticking situations.Different grades made with special methods and incorporating fillers can be manufactured to achieve certain operating properties.For example, Turcon Stepseal 2K is a single acting O-ring shaped rod seal designed to provide highly static and dynamic sealing.It can be installed together with other types of seals as a tandem system to achieve optimal static and dynamic tightness and is characterized by high extrusion resistance, low friction without jamming, minimal breakout force and high wear resistance.A double acting O-ring shaped rod seal for dynamic applications also offers low friction without sticking, minimal breakout force and high wear resistance.The trapezoidal cross section of the Turcon Glyd Ring T provides an excellent seal and the angles of each edge are designed to provide better control of the seal and better resistance to extrusion.Other high performance polymer sealing products are available in a variety of components and additive levels and hardnesses to optimize the compatibility and performance of the sealing elements with various types of industrial fluid.The Zurcon line of injection and molded polyurethanes is designed to meet the high demands of hydraulic and pneumatic sealing systems.Distinctive features of this material are highly mechanical strength and abrasion resistance, as well as the ability to resist petroleum oils.Zurcon Rimseal is a single acting elastomer activated rod seal in the form of an O-ring, providing very static and dynamic sealing and high wear resistance.It functions as a suitable secondary element to ensure reliable sealing of oil films at low secondary pressures.The Zurcon U-Cup RU9 stem seal can be used for applications requiring high sealing with less friction and heat generation than standard U-Cups.Its trimmed edges are suitable for a high degree of wear and extrusion resistance.This sealing is compatible with virtually all media, it also allows for a wide range of operating temperatures (from -35°C to +110°C).Working with hydraulic cylinders is based on the selection of the most suitable seal.Knowing the options available and the sealing parameters you need, such as pressure and type of fluids, temperature, speed, will allow you to make the right selection.For more information on rod seals, to check and choose the required seal selection parameters or to access the installation manual, visit Seals-Shop.com.You can also visit the Seals-Shop team at their joint stand with Trelleborg Sealing Solutions at the Achema trade fair for different sectors of the processing industry, which takes place in Frankfurt from June 11-16.The comments are the opinion of the users and not that of the portal.Insulting, racist or contrary to current laws are not allowed.No comments will be published that are not related to the news/article, or that do not comply with the Legal Notice and the Data Protection Policy.Legal Warnings and Basic Information on Personal Data Protection: Responsible for the Processing of your Personal Data: Interempresas Media, SLU Purposes: Manage contact with you.
