Seal Case Considerations for Optimal Seal Performance
In most shaft seals, the elastomeric portion is chemically bonded to a stamped metal case. Non-elastomeric members such as PTFE, which is more difficult to bond, may be mechanically clamped in place inside the case. The case performs two functions. First, it provides stability, allowing the outside diameter (seal O.D.) to press fit snugly into […]
