Rubber profiles for gaskets come in a variety of shapes. Four of the most common types are D, P, E, and lip seals. D-seals have a half-moon bulb that provides sealing under pressure and a flat, straight section that attaches with an adhesive such as PSA tape. P-seals have a rounded bulb and a flat stem. The bulb provides sealing under compression.

An oil seal normally consists of three basic components: the rubber sealing element, the metal insert (case) and the garter spring. The purpose of the sealing

This guide is intended to give design engineers the basic facts needed to begin the process of designing effective rubber seals, gaskets and weather 

Kalsi Seals™ are a family of patented, one-piece rotary seal designs that provide hydrodynamic lubrication to minimize seal and shaft wear, and to accommodate high differential pressure. They are used for lubricant retention and contaminant exclusion. They were originally developed for the harsh and unforgiving oilfield downhole drilling

There are many choices for sealing lip geometry & metal can configurations & each configuration is suited for a specific application. Contact ESP for help.

The FlexiCase seal is a metal-cased rotary lip seal suitable for applications where elastomeric lip seals fail and mechanical seals are too costly. The filled PTFE element provides greater chemical compatibility, wider temperature ranges, higher pressure capabilities, and longer life than elastomeric lip seals. ** Elgiloy® is a registered mark

The following presentation of concepts and ideas conceming the sealing and lubrication mechanism of elastomeric contact seals ciarifles the 

Lip seals may be considered as a special type of precision gasket. They are available in different shape of the cross section, as for instance with single lip, with double lips, with symmetric or asymmetric shape, rod seals, piston seals, scrape seals and reach their sealing function by rotation or by an axial movement.

Radial shaft seals that are primarily used for contaminant exclusion should be installed with the lip pointing outward. When additional protection is needed, 

The hollow lip optimises the state of tension in the gasket seam between the two halves of the weld ring. If a closed design and non-destructive testing are deemed to be of value, or if the assembly expense is to be significantly lower, we are happy to design our type A42 weld-ring gaskets, corresponding to your requirements.
