Spring Energized PTFE Seals

Performance Sealing Inc. (PSI) designs and manufactures a full line of spring energized PTFE seals and Teflon seals for your application. The selection of the right spring energizer seal design and sealing profile is also critical to optimal sealing system performance. Many designs are available to perform in reciprocating, rotary, oscillatory, and, static operating conditions. Our design process consists of working closely with you to understand the sealing requirements and then applying our design expertise, joint test program to develop the right sealing solution that improves your products sealing performance.

PTFE Seals Materials

PSI combines PTFE material technology and seal design to optimize your sealing performance. The material technology for Teflon seals uses high-performance engineered polymers made from PTFE, Duron® PTFE-based compounds, PEEK, Polyimides, PPS and other polymer materials specified for your application.

PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) seals, often referred to by the trade name "Teflon" seals, are widely used in various industries for their exceptional sealing properties and resistance to a wide range of chemicals and temperatures.

These seals are crucial components in many applications where a reliable and durable seal is required to prevent leakage and contamination.

PTFE seals are used in a wide range of sealing applications, including O-rings, gaskets, shaft seals, valve stem seals, and more. They are employed in various industries such as automotive, aerospace, food and beverage, oil and gas, and medical.

PTFE seals, are essential components in many industries due to their exceptional chemical resistance, temperature stability, low friction, and non-stick properties. Their ability to maintain effective seals in challenging environments makes them indispensable in maintaining the integrity and efficiency of various systems and equipment.
