Felt Seals  Manufacturers, Traders, Suppliers

Felt seals, also known as material seals or stuffing seals, are a type of seal used, for example, in pipelines. Here the sealing material consists of a fabric or so-called industrial wool, whereby the advantage is that the sealing material can simply be pulled a little further in the event of damage. Sooner or later, however, an exchange is also necessary here. The application in mechanical engineeringThe main field of application of felt gaskets and sealing felts is still in mechanical engineering, because here a shaft or a rod is sealed against liquids or water vapour. But sealing felt is also used in building services, for example in heating systems or water taps. Which type of gasket do the felt gaskets belong to?Felt gaskets basically belong to the dynamic gaskets, whose basic feature is that there is a relative movement of two sealing elements against each other. Here the felt seal is assigned to the so-called translatory seal, since the existing relative movement is of a so-called translatory type. Note the basics of felt gasketsThough, of course, with regard to the use of gasket felts or felt gaskets, some essential basics must also be observed, because if these are not known, no sealing can take place. For example, a felt gasket serves to avoid undesirable transitions of materials into each other or to each other.Further information can be found under the following links:Flat roof seals, flat roof seals, silicone seals and hydraulic gaskets.
