Seal stack for well tools sliding sleeve

V-Packings are used in various Oilfield Downhole equipment such as various Valves etc. V-Packings are extremely suitable for usage in medium to heavy duty applications. Vee Packings accept low and high pressure while operating in the most extreme conditions and also if there exists any misalignment between the sealing gaps.

The V Stack seal assembly is comprising a top adapter or anti-extrusion ring (1), Vee Rings (2) and a bottom adapter (3). In the assembly the energizing axial force is transferred between the individual packing rings so that each ring is pressed into positive contact with the mating hardware surface. Special material grades are available for a large variety of working conditions. The chevron seal stack material could be PEEK, modified PTFE and spring.

T-seals are three piece seals with an elastomeric lip and hard plastic anti-extrusion rings, it is proved to be of long time service. The standard design will fit into an o-ring gland and can be machined or net moulded.

T-Seal is a compact three-piece double acting seal composed of a T shaped elastomeric element and two rigid anti-extrusion rings. These compact sealing elements are designed for installation in simple O-ring grooves and are often used to modify faulty O-rings.

VT type V Packing is widely used for sealing pistons and rods with both single and double acting cylinders.

Spring energized PTFE seals consist of variety of jacket profiles and spring types. It can achieve the sealing effect compensation under different pressure conditions by spring energizer.

In LNG operations, valves can regularly encounter temperatures below -320 F (-196 C) and pressures above 750 pounds per square inch (psi). They are also subjected to periodic variations in temperatures known as “thermal cycling,” which can result in hardware expansion as well as shrinkage and material stresses. These factors make reliable, long-term valve operation an engineering challenge.

JST's back up ring compensate for large temperature fluctuations. Using Back-up Rings allows O-Rings to be utilized in higher pressure applications, where larger extrusion gaps are required and where there are reciprocating or rotating movements. Back-up Rings are protective and supporting elements with no sealing function. The back up ring material could be  PEEK, modified PTFE.
