sealing in industry and engineering are important and demanding
applications. The choice of the right sealing products is
paramount in minimising the total cost of maintenance and maximising
the performance of your equipment. In a sealing application the
type of medium to be sealed, its operating temperature range and
the maximum application pressure are the main considerations in
choosing a suitable sealing product. However many other diverse
factors must also be taken into account and these factors do differ
considerably from application to application. The application engineer
must exercise care in understanding a specific application, evaluate
its sealing requirements and choose the product that is most suitable
for the job at hand. In general, applications may be divided into
static seals or dynamic seals. This refers to the relative movement
of the surfaces being sealed. If the surfaces are stationary like
in a joint on the flange of a piping line then it is a static seal.
When the surfaces are moving as in the rotation of a shaft against
the housing of a pump, it is a dynamic seal.
