Cryogenic seals are required in a variety of industries, including LNG fueling systems, specialty gas manufacturing, cryo coolers, radio astronomy, scientific instrumentation, pharmaceutical research, and many more. One of the most reliable sealing solutions for cryogenic applications are polymer spring-energized seals. In this blog post, we are going to review spring-energized seals and then discuss what the recommended spring configuration is for cryogenic applications.
The 3 Most Popular Spring Energized Seals Materials for Cryogenic Sealing Applications
Cryogenic sealing applications are challenging, to say the least. One popular solution is the use of spring-energized seals, and in this blog post we are going to talk about the 3 post popular materials used for spring-energized seals for cryogenic applications: PTFE, modified PTFE, and UHMW PE.
