What is the difference between E seal and C seal?

Note that typically only O-Rings and C-Seals are plated because they generate enough assembly load to deform the plating. E-Seals are usually not plated because they do not generate enough assembly load to deform the plating.

How to design a mechanical seal?

Fundamentals of Mechanical Seal Design The seal design includes a rotating face, a stationary face, and an interface region where these faces meet. Material selection, such as using carbon graphite or silicon carbide, enhances durability, especially for abrasive fluids.

What is the surface finish for metal to metal seal?

Importance of surface finish for metal seal applications Most of the metal seal applications require surface finish of 32 u inch RA or better. Anything over 32 u in RA will not be bubble tight sealing (leakage rate of 1x10^4 cc/sec) which could be okay for certain applications.

What are the considerations for seal design?

Selecting the right material is the first and most critical step in designing a custom seal. Physical, resistance, and mechanical properties must all be taken into consideration for performance requirements, while material cost and processing must be considered to stay within budget.
