Annular lip seal geometry: Saint GobainRecent Research Landscape

Fluid leakage under high-pressure conditions causes catastrophic equipment failure and downtime. Engineering the specific heel and recess dimensions of the seal jacket ensures structural integrity and pressure-tight containment.

What technical problems is Saint Gobain addressing in Annular lip seal geometry?

High pressure seal leakage

(21)evidences

Structural deformation of the seal heel and jacket under extreme pressure leads to loss of contact integrity. Preventing fluid bypass at high pressures ensures system reliability in demanding mechanical assemblies.

Fluid pressure joint leakage

(7)evidences

Mechanical decoupling and fluid leakage at tubular interfaces. Preventing structural failure at connection points ensures containment integrity in high-stress piping systems.
