Glossary of Sealing Technology Terms

Types of Seals Axial Seal: A seal that operates along the axis of a shaft, preventing leakage by being compressed between components in a longitudinal direction. These seals are used when there is no relative movement between the sealed components. Radial Seal: A seal that functions perpendicular to the shaft, designed to contain fluids in […]

Choosing seal for industrial sealing solution – Key Factors

Industrial sealing solutions are critical components in a wide range of machinery and equipment, ensuring proper function and preventing leakage, contamination, and mechanical failure. Choosing the right seal involves a careful evaluation of several key factors, including material compatibility, operating conditions, friction reduction, and compliance with industry standards. 1. Material Compatibility The seal material must […]

Optimizing Rotary Unions with VR Seals

Seals are critical in rotary unions as they prevent leaks and ensure a reliable and consistent transfer of media.

Sealing gap behaviour of pressure-resistant rotary shaft seals

Thanks to a new type of sealing ring design and the use of self-lubricating elastomer materials, the VR ring type SOA is now the preferred choice for applications in the medium pressure range (15-150 bar). In pumps and rotary joints, it was previously almost impossible to use radial shaft seals with elastomer materials safely at […]

Hygienic design

Rotary shaft seals are critical in the food industry to prevent the ingress of dirt, dust and other contaminants into machinery and equipment. Here is some specific information about rotary shaft seals in relation to the food industry: When selecting rotary shaft seals for the food industry, it is important to work with a reliable […]
