Freudenberg’s new method shows how static seals actually age

January 22, 2020 By Paul Heney Leave a Comment

The seals used in plant engineering must have a very long service life. Once they are installed — to protect offshore wind turbine towers from salt corrosion, for example — customers (typically) require that they perform perfectly for more than 20 years. The service life of a seal is limited on the one hand by setting or stretching (physical … [Read more...] about Freudenberg’s new method shows how static seals actually age

New rotary shaft seal coating reduces wear and shaft runout

December 3, 2019 By Mary Gannon Leave a Comment

FST_Simmering_FKMplus_2019

The optimum function of rotary shaft seals depends on many factors. One of them is the wettability of the sealing lip. This parameter plays a particularly important role with synthetic lubricants such as polyglycol. If wetting is too low, not only does wear on the sealing lip increase, but the contact with the rotating shaft can also damage the … [Read more...] about New rotary shaft seal coating reduces wear and shaft runout
