Low friction seals for O-ring housings

In some cases we find that the dynamic sealing of a hydraulic cylinder or other similar dynamic application is designed to mount O-rings or, at most, “X-ring” type seals. Sometimes these applications operate at pressures or speeds that are beyond the reasonable limit of such seals. The result is that these O-rings, working as rod or piston seals, suffer premature wear that compromises their life and/or effectiveness. What can be the solution? Due to the higher working speed or that the pressure is higher or...

New generation Novapress seals - Frenzelit

Frequently, one of the problems that often appears in the spare parts warehouse of a factory is the variety of flat gaskets, not in sizes (although this is also true) but in materials. And there are cases where, for the same flat gasket, up to 3 different references coexist in the warehouse. This implies an increase in costs and inefficiency in the manufacturing processes. In a plant, roughly speaking, 30% sealing gaskets work in severe conditions where restructured PTFE (rPTFE), expanded PTFE (ePTFE), graphites and micas, among other materials, solve...
