• High surface speeds up to 7,000 fpm
• Some designs up to 500psi(35bar)*, 250,000PV*  
• Can tolerate dry running conditions
• Seals corrosive and abrasive media
• Low friction and wear
• Easy to assemble and disassemble
• Temperature range: -320ºF to 400ºF (-200°C to 200°C)**
• Extended seal life 
• Available quickly in low volumes with no tooling charges

**In corrosive media or extreme low temperatures, the elastomer o-ring can be protected from the media or replaced by incorporating a spring-energized seal design in the outside seal diameter of the seal. Please consult our engineers (link to contact us) or call 1-800-283-7140 for advice.
