More about Rotary seals 

Rotary seals are among the most widely used sealing elements in mechanical engineering. They are installed between two opposing machine components, where one part rotates while the other remains stationary. Their primary function is to reliably seal rotating shafts and prevent the operating medium from escaping the system.

A key factor in the design and selection of rotary seals is the circumferential speed of the shaft during operation, as this directly affects the load on the sealing edge. In addition, rotary seals must provide leak-tight performance, withstand pressure, and offer reliable resistance to chemical influences and thermal loads.

These requirements are achieved through specially engineered seal geometries combined with advanced high-performance sealing materials tailored to the specific application. This ensures long service life and stable operation even under demanding operating conditions.
