Trelleborg launches rotary seal

By Swati Deshpande,

Added 14 March 2017

It allows equipment to run faster at high pressure for longer time

When Turcon Roto Glyd Ring V is pressurized from one or the other side, the elastomer ring opens the port on the pressure side and equalizes the pressure beneath the elastomer ring - pressure balancing the seal by more than half. Shifting pressurization through the ports also renews the fluid in the space between the "legs", improving lubrication under the seal.

Turcon Roto Glyd Ring V is ideal for equipment for which a long service life is required in demanding service conditions. Typical examples are machining centers, hydraulic swivels, lead-troughs, rotary connections with swivel movements, excavators, forestry machinery, hydraulic rotators, robots, manipulators, indexing tables, pivoting motors, hydraulic motors, blow molding machines, top drives and core cutting equipment.

With maximum recommended operating temperatures of +100 °C/ +212 °F (up to +150°C/ +302°F at lower PV-values), Turcon Roto Glyd Ring V is designed to fit into standard Roto Glyd Ring grooves. It is available in four cross section series; for shafts in diameters from 35 to 500 millimeters/ 1.377 to 19.685 inches and for bores from 22 to 500 millimeters / 0.866 to 19.685 inches.

When specifying Turcon Roto Glyd Ring V, users should note the following. Pressure should be limited to a maximum of 30 MPa. Velocity needs to be limited to 2.0 meters per second. The Roto Glyd Ring V has been successfully tested up to a combined PV of 10 MPa.m/s.
