O-Ring Heel Seal

When considering a rotary service seal and additional gland length are available, an O-Ring Heel Seal provides a level of anti-rotation and redundant sealing. The addition of an O-Ring on the heel of a radial seal creates a high-friction interface at the bore to counteract rotary forces. This design enhances the performance of typical spring seals, ensuring effective sealing even under demanding conditions.

With proper hardware design, a high level of sealing can be realized, making an O-Ring Heel Seal a good choice where gaseous or low-viscosity fluids need to be sealed. These seals are particularly beneficial as high-pressure rotary seals, providing reliable containment of fluids and preventing leaks. Using O-Ring Heel Seals in such applications demonstrates their versatility and effectiveness.

Moreover, O-Ring Heel Seals are compatible with various fluids, including low viscosity and gaseous substances, making them an ideal choice for a wide range of applications. Their robust design and reliable performance meet the stringent requirements of high-pressure rotary seals and other demanding sealing scenarios.

Overall, the addition of an O-Ring Heel Seal in a mechanical seal setup provides enhanced sealing capabilities, making it a dependable option for applications requiring high-pressure rotary seals, oil seals, and energized seals. With the right hardware design, these seals offer a high level of sealing efficiency, effectively ensuring the containment of various fluids.
