Custom Compression Seals Engineered for Performance
Compression seals, like all wear parts, are designed to degrade over time—but premature failure can cause many undesirable effects. These include reduced productivity, excessive energy use and an increased risk of unexpected mechanical breakdown, all of which, ultimately, negatively affect an asset’s bottom line.
To perform reliably, compression seals must provide exceptional sealing, be easy to install or retrofit, and offer long service life—even in low-pressure environments where sealing relies entirely on the seal itself.
Wherever they’re used, compression seals work by deforming into the sealing profile on installation and work with both liquid and gaseous media. To do so effectively, it requires a flexible – yet highly durable – geometry. Thermoset polyurethane is considered to be one of the highest-performing materials, creating a seal that provides longevity in combination with effectiveness.
