Rod seal manufacturer and supplier right now in 2024: The Primary Seal – While two of the sealing points in a seal design are simple static seals, the seal between the rotating and stationary members needs a little more consideration. This primary seal is the basis of all seal design and is essential to its effectiveness. The primary seal is essentially a spring loaded vertical bearing – consisting of two extremely flat faces, one fixed, one rotating, running against each other. The seal faces are pushed together using a combination of hydraulic force from the sealed fluid and spring force from the seal design. In this way a seal is formed to prevent process leaking between the rotating (shaft) and stationary areas of the pump. The surfaces of the seal faces are super-lapped to a high degree of flatness; typically 2-3 Helium light-bands (0.00003” / 0.0008mm). If the seal faces rotated against each other without some form of lubrication they would wear and quickly fail due to face friction and heat generation. For this reason some form of lubrication is required between the rotary and stationary seal face; this is known as the fluid film. Discover additional details on https://www.dmsseals.com/rod-seals.
What are Mechanical Seals? Mechanical seals are devices that accommodate a rotating shaft while containing and preventing the fluid from leaking out of the enclosed housing. While different mechanical seal designs are available for pumping applications, most have three sealing points. Rotating face that rotates with the shaft; Stationary face fitted to the pump housing; Interface portion between the rotating and stationary face of the seal. These three sealing points ensure that the fluid contained within the pump housing does not leak while also preventing dust particles in the atmosphere from entering the housing. The mechanical seals are usually made up of different materials to prevent sticking. Typically, one side of the seal uses softer materials like carbon graphite, and the other is made of harder materials such as silicon carbide or ceramic alumina. However, hard materials are preferred for both surfaces if the pumping application involves abrasive fluids. In addition to the two materials, the sealing unit also comes with O-rings to seal the stationary face on the housing side and the rotating face on the shaft side. Springs are also used to keep both faces pressed. In most cases, the two faces of the seals are also lubricated to prevent friction and wear. Depending on the application, this fluid film can either be a separate lubricant or the process fluid itself.
Due to the volume and weight limitations of the system, it is impossible to install an ideal filtration and cooling system. High temperature, high pressure, and high speed cause the hydraulic oil to deteriorate easily, and the mechanical parts are also prone to erosion and stains. There are many stains and impurities in hydraulic oil, but it cannot be thoroughly filtered, which is the aspect of endogenous stains. All kinds of dust in the working environment may be very large, and it will inevitably enter the hydraulic system in multiple ways, causing oil pollution, which is an external stain. Therefore, the sealing system is required to be resistant to stains.
The rotary seal from DMS SEALS is a dynamic sealing component that is installed between the rotating shaft and the stationary parts to seal the lubricating oil and prevent external dust and debris from entering the inside of the device. When selecting the material, we fully consider the working medium, working temperature and the adaptability of the lip when the shaft rotates at high speed. It has a remarkable sealing performance and can maintain a great sealing effect for a long time.
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.
The rod seals can be operated with or without lubrication. We guarantee strong dimensional stability and a low coefficient of friction. Changes in temperature do not affect its performance. It is easy to install and can be used with piston rods with the larger diameter and heavy-duty hydraulic rod sealing systems to provide a tight and excellent seal. DMS Seals with 12+ years of experience for manufacturing rod seals, we are confident to provide top quality & satisfying product. There are hydraulic rod seals, piston rod seals, etc for selection, welcome to contact us for further details.
Destroy the leak: The working conditions of the sealing part are relatively bad, the thermal deformation is large, it is often subjected to vibration, impact, improper installation, excessive tightening force, repeated use, compression deformation, internal stress concentration, damage beyond the fatigue strength, material aging, deterioration, etc. will cause damage to leaks. This kind of leakage has the greatest impact and great harm, so it is necessary to strengthen prevention.
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. Find even more information at https://www.dmsseals.com/.
