JST designs and manufactures spring energized lip seals for ball valve. In this article, we will introduce some lip seals used for different sealing application in ball valve. Lip seal type FVR is used for ball valve seat sealing. As shown in picture Fig-1, the FVR lip seal contains four parts. 1- T ring (material: carbon filled PTFE), 2- U ring (material: carbon filled PTFE), 3-Spring (material: ...

EVZ is commonly used in high-pressure mud pumps and fracturing pumps, namely Packings, the high-speed reciprocating dynamic seals. Its main function is to prevent plungers from leakage in high-speed reciprocating. Some special working conditions are taken into consideration when designing its structure and material, which make it apply to fracturing fluid, mud so on mediums. Technical Requirements...

Hydraulic rod applications face relentless challenges: high-pressure spikes, side loads, abrasive contaminants, and temperature extremes. Traditional elastomeric seals often crack, extrude, or leak under these conditions—causing downtime and fluid loss. SPNS type hydraulic seals, are also call rod buffer step seals, static seals installed in glands or housings to prevent the leakage of fluid from ...

In liquefied natural gas (LNG) applications, valves can regularly encounter temperatures below -320 F (-196 C) and pressures above 750 pounds per square inch (psi). The equipment faces constant thermal cycling, conventional seals risk failure, leading to dangerous leaks and operational shutdowns. Lip seals excel in these extremes by maintaining elasticity and sealing integrity even under cryogenic...
