Spring Energized Seal PTFE

Spring energized seals are a highly reliable option when standard elastomer based and polyurethane-based seals will not meet the operating limits.

Product Details

PTFE Spring energized seals provide durable and reliable sealing solutions in critical applications and under extreme operating conditions in different industries like valve industry, oil&gas, etc.

Spring energized seals are a highly reliable option when standard elastomer based and polyurethane-based seals will not meet the operating limits, equipment parameters, or environmental conditions of your application. Even when a standard seal might meet basic needs, many engineers turn to spring energized seals for an added level of reliability and peace of mind.

Use springs to provide a consistent load throughout the circumference of the seal and create a leak-tight seal between the jacket and the hardware.

Use system pressure to create an additional sealing force between the jacket and the hardware.

In this combination, the spring forces the seal lips against the gland and rod surfaces, while pressure assists the spring force.

This seal design extends the operating limits of polymer based seals by:

Providing gas tight sealing systems to end users

Helping to achieve fugitive emission reduction goals

Meeting environmental regulation requirements
