OmniSeal is a high-performance spring-energized polymer seal capable of handling extreme service conditions. It is typically used where ultra-low friction, chemical compatibility, and extreme temperature are required.
The Rulon material is a family of proprietary, homogeneous materials mostly of PTFE based resins, engineered and developed with specific custom applications in mind. It includes a variety of high-performance bearings and components, which meet today's need for enhanced wear performance in a PTFE-based material. The Rulon material withstands a variety of harsh environments such as extreme dryness, cryogenic temperatures, water, steam, and hydrocarbon fuel.
