Material Selection

  • PTFE Materials:
    • Unfilled PTFE: Low coefficient of friction and minimal wear on counterfaces, suitable for applications requiring reduced resistance.
    • Filled PTFE: Enhanced resistance to wear and deformation, with fillers like glass fiber, carbon, graphite, molybdenum disulfide, and polymers.
  • Metal Casing Options:
    • Steel, aluminum, or stainless steel (SS 304, SS 316, SS 316 TI).
  • O-Ring Material: Selected to suit specific operating conditions, with options for food-grade applications for easy cleaning and disassembly.

Installation Guidance

Due to the non-elastic nature of PTFE lips, careful installation is crucial to prevent damage:

  1. Use installation tools like plastic or metal cones to protect PTFE lips during assembly.
  2. Cover sharp edges, keyways, or splines on shafts with tape or specialized tools to avoid damage.
  3. Ensure smooth shaft surfaces with burr-free radii or chamfers for optimal seal performance.
  4. For seals with dual PTFE lips facing opposite directions, use an installation cone for easier assembly.
