Abradable Powder Coatings safely reduce operating clearances and friction to improve the efficiency of compressors, pumps, engines, blowers, etc. A Tier 1 automotive supplier reports increased volumetric efficiencies and enhanced sealing on supercharger rotor sets through the use of a patented abradable powder coating.
Technetics Group Columbia – Technetics Group Columbia manufactures metal seals for the aerospace and nuclear power industries, and was formerly known as Garlock Helicoflex. [ 4 ] Technetics Group DeLand – Technetics Group DeLand was purchased by EnPro Industries in 2009, and manufactures abradable seals , acoustic materials , brush seals ...
An abradable coating is a coating made of an abradable material – meaning if it rubs against a more abrasive material in motion, the former will be worn whereas the latter will face no wear. Abradable coatings provide a .1 to .2% performance improvement compared to those without coating.
Uranium glass used as lead-in seals in a vacuum capacitor. Glass-to-metal seals are a type of mechanical seal which joins glass and metal surfaces. They are very important elements in the construction of vacuum tubes, electric discharge tubes, incandescent light bulbs, glass-encapsulated semiconductor diodes, reed switches, glass windows in metal cases, and metal or ceramic packages of ...
Wear control: either hardfacing (wear-resistant) or abradable coating; Repairing damaged surfaces; Temperature/oxidation protection (thermal barrier coatings) Medical implants coatings (by using polymer derived ceramics) [8] Production of functionally graded materials (for any of the above applications)
Ferrofluid-based seals used in industrial and scientific applications are most often packaged in mechanical seal assemblies called rotary feed-throughs, which also contain a central shaft, ball bearings, and outer housing. The ball bearings provide two functions: maintaining the shaft's centering within the seal gap and supporting external loads.
Flex Seal is an American brand of adhesive bonding products made by the family-owned company Swift Response in Weston, Florida. [1] Founded on February 28, 2011, [ 1 ] the company employs 100 people led by its pitchman and Chief Executive Officer Phil Swift. [ 1 ]
In mechanical engineering, a face seal is a seal in which the sealing surfaces are normal to the axis of the seal. Face seals are typically used in static applications and are used to prevent leakage in the radial direction with respect to the axis of the seal. [1] Face seals are often located in a groove or cavity on a flange. Face seals are a ...
