Quality spring seals manufacturer and supplier: Before examining how mechanical seals function it is important to understand other methods of forming this seal. One such method still widely used is Gland Packing. Gland packing is a braided, rope like material that is packed around the shaft – physically stuffing the gap between the shaft and the pump housing. Gland packing is still commonly used in many applications, however increasingly users are adopting mechanical seals for the following reasons; The friction of the shaft rotating wears away at the packing over time, which leads to increased leakage until the packing is adjusted or re-packed. The friction of the shaft also means that packing also needs to be flushed with large volumes of water in order to keep it cool. Packing needs to press against the shaft in order to reduce leakage – this means that the pump needs more drive power to turn the shaft, wasting energy. Because packing needs to contact the shaft it will eventually wear a groove into it, which can be costly to repair or replace. See extra details at spring seals.
Mechanical seals often need to be used in chemical applications. When confronted with some harsh chemicals, mechanical seals containing elastomers made of Viton, Kalrez or Chemrez can’t hold up. Because PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene)or as most people know it Teflon ® , has a 0-14 ph range it usually will hold up. Like most materials every choice has an up and a down side. Because PTFE will handle most chemical applications, chemical attack is no longer an issue. One the down side PTFE wedges can cause fretting of your sleeve or shaft if you have not hard surfaced your shaft or sleeve (plasma coating). The stationary element of your seal will require a PTFE gasket. It’s not much good to have a PTFE on the rotary and then use an elastomer on the seat. We have seen it done, and because it is a static application some have gotten away with it, but it is not recommended. Most commonly the seat will be a L-shaped or Clamped mount style to allow space for a PTFE gasket to be used as the secondary sealing element.
Construction machinery sealing system requirements: High and low temperature resistance Because of continuous work for a long time, if it is outdoors in summer, the hydraulic oil temperature of the machine may exceed 100°C, which requires the seal to be resistant to high temperature. If it is outdoors in winter, the temperature may be around -40°C when it is just turned on, and the seals are required to be resistant to low temperatures. Therefore, the sealing system is required to withstand a wide temperature range. The machine itself walks. Due to the limitation of volume and weight, the hydraulic oil tank is generally relatively small.
The bearing seal maintains lubrication where needed and helps protect the working part from abrasive particles and corrosive moisture. The seals are precisely configured to provide extremely low friction and excellent contamination resistance. It is perfect for high speed or low torque equipment as well as dusty environments. Moreover, the seal is reasonably designed to provide superior resistance to foreign particles.
The gasket made by DMS SEALS is uniquely mechanical and thermally stable and it has excellent oxidation resistance. Compared with other thermoplastics, it can be applied to components such as valves and bushings, with higher wear resistance, higher mechanical properties and thermal fatigue resistance. At the same time, it has excellent oil resistance (alkane oil), heat resistance, water resistance, aging resistance, air tightness and excellent adhesion. It is commonly used in media such as water, oil, and natural gas.
Our piston seals are designed to provide excellent leak control. We guarantee that it can perfectly meet the user’s requirements for low friction, compactness, precise configuration and simple installation. It is designed for fluid power applications. It is made of compound materials with high performance, which guarantees excellent wear resistance and excellent extrusion resistance for the seal. It is designed to be suitable for almost all fluid media and is highly resistant to oxidation and corrosion. It has excellent dynamic and static sealing performance and can even work under dusty industrial environments. Moreover, it has strong adaptability to various working conditions and can adapt to a fast, high-pressure working environment. At the same time, it has unparalleled performance in extreme temperature environments.
The selection principle of the gasket: according to the working pressure, working temperature, the corrosiveness of the sealing medium and the form of the sealing surface. Temperature influence: In normal temperature and low pressure, use non-metallic soft honey gasket; in medium pressure and high temperature, choose metal and non-metal combination gasket or metal gasket; when temperature and pressure fluctuate greatly, choose good elasticity or self-tightening type Gaskets; in low temperature, corrosive media or vacuum conditions, gaskets with special properties should be considered.
The guide belt is a belt-shaped member that guides the moving parts. Its main function is to guide. In order to realize the function of guidance, it must support the guided member, and guide and correct its motion trajectory. In order to realize the guiding function well, it also requires isolation, shock absorption and noise reduction of the guiding parts. Guide belts are mainly used in oil cylinders and cylinders. Due to their excellent performance, they are also widely used in other motion mechanisms. Discover more details on dmsseals.com.
