Spring Energised Seals >

A Worldwide Leader in High Performance Sealin g > OmniSeal ,a recognized name in seal-ing for over fifty years. First as Fluorocarbon then Furon and now as Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics(SGPPL). OmniSeals, have been usedin a multitude of applications where durability, resistance to chemicals and operation at temperature extremes is crucial. Our spring energised seal designs are widely recognized throughout the industry. OmniSeal high-performance spring energised seals reduce friction, operate in harsh environments, reduce downtime and extend equipmentservice life. Compagnie de...

Backed by a proud heritage of productinnovation, technological expertise and market leadership, Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics is dedicated to working with our customers to solve todays tough seal application issues and the challenges that lie ahead.OmniSeal seals are manufacturedthroughout the world, with sites located in North America and South America, Europe and Asia.The seals were originally designed anddeveloped in Southern California. The current facilities located in Garden Grove, California, Kontich in Belgium and SuwaJapan design and manufacture HighPerformance Spring Energised...

The OmniSeal is a spring actuated, pressure assisted sealing device con- sisting of a PTFE (or other polymer) jacket, partially encapsulating a corro-sion resistant metal spring energiser.When the OmniSeal is seated inthe gland, the spring is under compression, forcing the jacket lips against the gland walls thereby creating a leak-tight seal. The spring provides permanentresilience to the seal jacket and compensates for material wear and hardware misalignment or eccentrici- ty. System pressure also assists in energizing the seal jacket. Spring loading, assisted by system pressure provides...

Radial Sealsin Static Service > While most of the OmniSeal designscan be used as static radial seals, the OmniSeal 103A, Page 16, is generally recommended for this service. Its moderate to high spring load provides positive sealing under most static sealing conditions. Radial Sealsin Reciprocating Motion > Reciprocating radial seals are themost common OmniSeal applica- tions. For rod and piston sealing and similar applications, the OmniSeal400A, Page 18, is recommended for general purpose sealing at low tomoderate pressures. This series has alow load, high deflection spring which provides...

RACO 1100A is also an excellent choice when maximum sealability is mandatory in liquids and gases with a low specific gravity and sealing atcryogenic temperatures. The OmniSeal 103A, face seal is generally the first choice for most static face seal applications. This series utilizes a moderate to high load spring, and is capable of sealing effectively over a wide temperature and pressure range.Because of its very high springloading, the OmniSeal RACO OmniSeal 400A, is recommended forrotary face seal applications at slow to moderate rotary speeds. Low spring loading keeps friction to a...

Back-Up Rings are used when sealingfluids or gases at high temperature and high pressure combinations. Careful attention is also required at high pressure and high speed reciprocation conditions. If the application parameters fall outside the limits set in the tables on page 10, we strongly advice to contact our technical support for further assistance. Extrusion is a function off a) the size of the extrusion gap b) the temperature c) the system pressure d) surface speed (reciprocating movements) Under pressure the PTFE tends to flow into the extrusion gap. Dynamicreciprocating movements...
