Seals for Valve Manufacturers
O-rings and seals are essential components in valve systems for numerous reasons. They not only prevent fluid and gas leaks but also reduce wear on valve components by absorbing impact and friction. Here, we’ll go over the various types of seals used in valve manufacturing, as well as some key considerations to keep in mind […]
Sealing for Hydraulic Systems
Hydraulic systems utilize pressurized fluid to power commercial and industrial machinery. In addition to high pressures, this equipment is subjected to hot environments, the elements, corrosive media, and contaminants, making these systems vulnerable to leaks and the resulting pressure drops. To prevent this during operations, manufacturers of everything from earth-moving and forestry equipment to industrial […]
Why Sealing Gaskets Matter
Click to Expand A gasket is a form of seal that bridges the space between two surfaces to prevent leakages. When installed incorrectly, gaskets will fail to function properly. To maintain your rubber gaskets’ optimal performance for an extended time, you must take several steps, one of which is sealing. Gaskets are a typical tool […]
What Are O-Rings?
Click to Expand O-rings are an essential component in many industrial manufacturing processes. These simple yet effective rubber rings provide a tight seal between two mating surfaces, allowing for the transfer of fluids or gases while preventing leaks. They have been used in aerospace, automotive, and medical applications since their invention by Danish engineer Neils […]
Sealing Device Design Guide
Click to Expand Seals are critical to the function of a device. For instance, seals prevent sweat and water from entering wearable devices, keeping them free from corrosion, shortage, and failure. Meanwhile, sealing devices maintain parts and components in tip-top shape and reduce the risk of product damage. When creating a sealing device, the main […]
