Seals & Gaskets
Rubber seals and gaskets are essential components used to create tight, leak-proof joints between two surfaces. They are designed to prevent the escape of fluids or gases, ensuring the integrity and efficiency of various systems.
Types of Rubber Seals supplied by Talbros
1. Static Seals: These seals are used in applications where there is no relative motion between the sealing surfaces. Common examples include O-rings and flat seals.
2. Dynamic Seals: These are designed for applications involving movement, such as piston seals and rotary seals, which need to accommodate sliding or rotating parts.
3. Lip Seals: Often used in rotating shafts, lip seals feature a flexible lip that maintains contact with the shaft, preventing leaks.
Types of Rubber Gaskets supplied by Talbros
1. Flat Gaskets: Simple, flat pieces of rubber that fill the space between two surfaces to prevent leakage. They are commonly used in flanged joints.
2. Rubber-metal Gaskets: Made from a combination of rubber and metal, these gaskets are designed to handle higher pressures and temperatures. More information on these can be found here
