PS SEALS the new Gylon lip in the food and pharmaceutical industry. These industries use applications that require high demands on seal materials, especially in relation to the seal lips to allow sealing of shafts in rotating machines.
Abrasive media such as sugar or dust are major challenges, for which there is currently no lasting solution. Not only do the media have to be reliably sealed during production and cleaning cycles, they also have to be the lip material of the lip seal must also comply with the regulations of the food and pharmaceutical sectors.
Up to now, the lip of the PS SEAL restraints Garlock was made of a single material to be chosen from among the members of the Gylon family. (Gylon Black, Gylon Blue, Gylon White, F, MS, KF). At present, the family has grown and has a new member who is Gylon. 3549.
Its abrasion resistance is almost 3 times higher than that of Gylon® White and F, without prejudice to its almost universal chemical resistance.
