Innovation Is Our Business Omniseal PTFE rotary lip seals (also known as rotary shaft seals) were introduced in the early 1970s, designed to bridge the gap between conventional elastomer lip seals and mechanical face seals. About a decade later, our lip seals were redesigned for a critical application that blended and mixed highly explosive materials. Our technical team custom engineered a polymer lip seal without metal components, machining from the same polymer material. The ability to perform in hostile environments such as extreme temperatures, aggressive media, high surface speeds, high...

A Closer Look at Our Metal-Cased Lip Seals Omniseal Solutions offers a complete line of Omniseal® metal-cased lip seals, which can be manufactured from a variety of materials for PTFE and PTFE-blended sealing elements. Omniseal® lip seals withstand hostile environments and other demanding conditions. They exceed the performance of elastomer lip seals in the following areas: • Excellent chemical resistance • Low friction (leads to long life) • Capable of surface speeds in excess of 7,000 ft./min. (35 m/s) • Capable of handling wide temperature ranges: -65°F to 450°F (-53°C to 232°C) • High pressure...

Our polymer lip seals are not designed with an external metal case but offer similar performance. Through the years, we have been able to assist our customers in determining when a polymer lip seal would be more effective than an Omniseal® lip seal with metal cases or support rings. The soft surface of the seal’s outer diameter prevents damage of the housing and allows the seal to be easily installed and removed. These seals are used most often in applications that require seal removal in order to be changed or cleaned such as in medical or pharmaceutical instrumentation and devices. Furthermore,...
