PTFE Bearing Shaft Seal Energized By Spring

PTFE Bearing Shaft Seal energized by Spring is a spring actuated PTFE bearing seal designed to prevent lubricant or other fluids from leaking from the bearing section. It has a low coefficient of friction, high chemical resistance, high temperature and high pressure capabilities. Its construction is a membrane that fits inside a spring, and when the membrane and shaft fit snugly, they form an effective seal. As the shaft rotates, the pressure of the spring remains compressed and continuously compresses the PTFE. This seal is available in a variety of shaft sizes and materials such as steel, copper and aluminium. Its application fields include food processing, petrochemical engineering, water pumps, transmissions and so on.

Product Name: PTFE Bearing Shaft Seal energized by Spring

Spring energized seals outperform conventional elastomeric seals due to chemical attack, extreme heat or cold, friction, extrusion or compression set. Seal jackets, made from low-friction PTFE and various blends, are chemically inert, extrusion resistant and capable of operating over a wide temperature range.

We are here to HELP you beat your tough problems, we love a challenge the unusual and seemingly impossible. The team is waiting to resolve your problems.

With our innovative designs and high performance materials we are able to manufacturer a unique seal that will perform in your most demanding applications.

A spring-energized seal is made of:

Jacket

The jacket is made from a variety profiles and low-friction PTFE various blends and high performance polymeric materials. Since jackets are machined on a CNC Lathe to very close tolerances the seal can be easily adjusted to enhance seal performance.

Springs

The spring energize the seal lips without taking a compression set or becoming too soft or hard, the way an elastomer can. There are three different spring types , each with different load ratings to meet the linear friction or torque requirements.

What situations can PTFE Variseal be applied to?

Aircraft, aerospace

Medical instrumentation

Liquid chromatography

Semicoductor manufacturing equipment

Petroleum and chemical process equipment

Pumps, valves. Compressors and mechanical seals
